The election of 1800 was a true change in philosophy of government. It is sometimes called the revolution of 1800. John Adams had continued the efforts of Washington to establish a strong federal government and seemed more worried than Washington about seditious people would undermine its power. He got congress to give him power to suppress criticism of the federal government. Jefferson, who was elected in 1800, was more concerned with personal freedom and states rights than in maintaining the power of the federal government. The hated alien and sedition act was promptly allowed to expire.
