Juan Manuel José Domingo Ortiz de Rosas (30 March 1793 – 14 March 1877), nicknamed "Restorer of the Laws" Was a important president and patriot for the confederation. Being very broad and old dialectic, worthy of a federal of the time

Example of his dialectic in a speech given by him:[My beloved compatriots: When I have resolved to make the terrible sacrifice of mounting the seat of Government, in the dire circumstances in which our unfortunate country finds itself; When, in order to get her out of the deep abyss of evils, in which we mourn her submerged, I have accepted the investiture of an unlimited power, which, despite all its hatefulness, I have considered absolutely necessary for such an undertaking, do not think that I have given my hopes to my limited capacity, my weak strength, or that extension of power that the law gives me supported by your almost unanimous vote of doubt and campaign. No: my hopes have been given to a special protection of God, and after this to your virtues and patriotism. None of you is unaware of the accumulation of evils that overwhelms our beloved homeland, and its true origin. No one is unaware that a numerous faction of corrupt men, flaunting their impiety, their greed, and their infidelity, and engaging in open warfare with religion, honesty, and good faith, has introduced disorder and lawlessness everywhere. immorality; he has distorted the laws, and made them insufficient for our well-being; it has generalized the crimes and guaranteed their impunity; it has devoured the public treasury and destroyed private fortunes; it has destroyed the necessary confidence in social relations and obstructed the honest means of acquisition; In a word, it has dissolved society and presented treachery and perfidy in triumph. The experience of all the centuries teaches us that the remedy for these evils cannot be subject to forms, and that its application must be so prompt and expeditious and so well suited to the circumstances of the moment, when it is not only impossible to foresee all the means hidden and nefarious that the spirit of conspiracy uses, but also establish rules of legal criteria for handling disguised in a thousand ways and always covered with the veil of secrecy. There is, therefore, no other option than to oppose them with honesty, patriotism and the assiduous vigilance of good citizens, supported by the strength of an extraordinary power, whose action is not easy to evade. This is all I demand of you to restore public tranquility and strengthen order under the federal government regime that the peoples of the republic have proclaimed.]
