1) What was Washington's view of what US foreign policy ought to be? Why did he argue that nations should avoid antipathies and passionate attachments toward other nations? What should guide US foreign policy? Why?
He believed that the United States should have good relations with all countries but they should have not attachment to said countries. He believed that attachment to other countries would draw them into a war that they had no common interest being involved in. Antipathies also led to more frequent collisions and conflicts which is what the US did not want. Becoming friends with a stronger nation meant the weaker nation would become a satellite for the stronger one. In this case the US would be the weaker country and therefore the satellite. Promote trade and a commercial relationship but keep political connection at a minimum.
The US was weak at this time militarily and economically they had just been freed from British colonial control and needed trade only at this time

Public policy in the United States is shaped by a wide variety of forces, from polls and election results to interest groups and institutions, both formal and informal. In addition to political parties, the influence of diverse and sometimes antagonistic political forces has been widely acknowledged by policymakers and evidenced by scholars, and journalists. In recent years concerns have been growing that deep-pocketed donors now play an unprecedented role in American politics — concerns supported by 2013 research from Harvard and the University of Sydney that found that for election integrity, the U.S. ranked 26th out of 66 countries analyzed.
The question of who shapes public policies and under what conditions is a critical one, particularly in the context of declining voter turnout. From both a theoretical and practical point of view, it is important to understand if voters still have the possibility of providing meaningful input into public policies, or if the government bypasses citizens in favor of economic elites and interest groups with strong fundraising and organizational capacity.
