The correct answer is C. The first one is correct because it doesn't reflect the central idea, and Hamilton was more interested in a government-centric society. The second is also incorrect because it doesn't reflect the central idea, and is strongly biased. It also inaccuratly states that Hamilton stunted America's growth, when he did the opposite. He helped America flourish. It is, however, a widely debated topic. But nonetheless, that answer would be incorrect. Finally, last answer is incorrect because it inaccuratly states that Hamilton liked to stay out of harms way, when in reality Hamilton was over-enthusiastic about sacraficing himself in the war as a martyr. The third one is correct because it reflects his entire life, and does so accurately. Therefore, the correct answer is C.
