Both Washington and Jefferson aided in setting up the Government we are currently under. So obviously they both agreed in checks and balances as neither wanted America to have a King such as as Great Britain. The office of President was originally going to be weak, but was redefined with Washington in mind. The Presidential office was set up to be the Leader, not the Ruler. Congress and the Supreme Court was the check and balance to Presidential power. Even though it was set up for the President to be able to VETO a law by Congress, Congress was also given the power to override the President, just as the Supreme Court is limited by the Constitution.
George Washington and Thomas Jefferson both believed in the importance of checks and balances as a means to prevent the abuse of power. They recognized that separation of powers and a system of checks and balances were crucial to maintaining a balanced and functioning government. They both supported a strong executive branch but also believed in limiting its power through the checks provided by the legislative and judicial branches.
There was George Washington, Bill Clinton, and Abraham Lincon.
