Alexander Hamilton- Hamilton Myers-Briggs Personality Types



Alexander Hamilton
ENFJ
E- Do I really need to explain this? He is outgoing and outspoken. He wants his ideas heard and is not afraid to speak his mind, even to a fault sometimes. Alex is truly gregarious.
"I have not been shy, I am just a guy in the public eye." -Your Obedient Servant
"Oh, am I talkin' too loud? Sometimes I get over excited, shoot off at the mouth." -My Shot
"I know I talk too much." -Non-Stop

N- Alex is always looking towards the future and looking at the bigger picture- leaving his legacy. Ever since his youth, he has been looking for a way to reach his goals for the future instead of living each day in the present as a Sensing type does.
"I imagine death so much it feels more like a memory." -My Shot, Yorktown, The World Was Wide Enough
"Don't be shocked when your history book mentions me." -My Shot
"You and your words, obsessed with your legacy." -Burn
"He will never be satisfied." -Satisfied

F- Ham always follows what his heart believes is right. However, this doesn't mean he isn't as intelligent as someone with a Thinking type. Ham is actually said to be more intelligent than the average person, of course. He just follows personal and other people's feelings over logic, which led to the rise of his career and also the downfall.
"Why do you always say what you believe?" -Non-Stop (though this may also apply to Extraverted)
"Goes and proposes his own form of government, his own plan for a new form of government, talks for six hours [...] yo who the f is this?" -Non-Stop
"I will not equivocate on my opinion, I have always worn it on my sleeve." -Your Obedient Servant
"I won't apologize for doing what's right." -Your Obedient Servant
"For once in your life, take a stand with pride. I don't understand how you stand to the side." -Non-Stop

J- Judging types are organized and have plans. Hamilton is this exactly. He knows what needs to be done in order for him to fulfill his goals and he sticks to it. And as for organized... well, the evidence is pretty much in two quotes below.
"But my papers are orderly, as you can see I kept a record of every check in my checkered." -We Know
"Here's an itemized list of thirty years of disagreements." -Your Obedient Servant
"I wanted to do what you did, graduate in two then join the revolution." -Aaron Burr, Sir
"Tryin' to reach my goal, my power of speech, unimpeachable." -My Shot
"As a kid in the Caribbean I wish for a war, I knew it was the only way to rise up." -Right Hand Man (this could also apply to iNtuition)
