Who was the most popular leader out of John Adams and Thomas Jefferson?

Thomas Jefferson was more popular than John Adams. Adams was a difficult person to get along with. He clung to notions that government should be run by the elite, aristocratic classes even though the colonies had recently won their independence from Great Britain and its monarchy. He was very formal and did not trust the common man. Adams served only one term as president. When he ran for the second term, he lost to Jefferson and left Washington before Jefferson was sworn in. During his term as president, criticism of him was so strong, he had Congress pass the Alien and Secition Act. This law gave him power to arrest anyone speaking against the government and to expel anynon-American person from the country if that person spole ill of him.

Why did Jefferson and Adams have issues as friends?

They had issues for a number of reasons. First, they had opposing political beliefs about the role and nature of government. Adams was for a strong central government. Jefferson was for a weaker one that left more governmental power to the individual states. Adams believed government should be left to the care of wiser men than the general public. Jefferson believed government by the general public was exactly what the revolution was all about in the first place. They came to be leaders of the two different political parties, Federalist and Republican, that sprang up among the citizens and politicians of the time. This led to opposing political factions forming, each wanting the other out of the way and each looking to Adams or Jefferson to lead them. They both let these political differences become personal dislikes. This was because they began to see each other as turning his back on the ideals that led to the new country in the first place. Another issue that arose was that Jefferson, along with James Madison, was working behind Adams' back to unseat Adams as president, even though Jefferson was Adams's Vice-president. Jefferson had written a letter to a friend of his that was critical of Adams's political views. The letter somehow became public to the embarassment of Adams. Adams was so angry he refused to speak to Jefferson for many years. Even Abigail Adams was furious with Jefferson and wrote him telling him that he was two-faced. Jefferson's behind the scenes actions against Adams were successful, and Jefferson beat Adams in the next presidential election after Adams had served only one term. Adams left office without staying to see Jefferson sworn in. John Adams was a difficult man to get along with. He even disliked his staunchest fellow Federalist, Alexander Hamilton. It is was no surprise that Adams and Jefferson eventually had their falling out, since Adams was hardly liked by anyone around him, except Abigail. In fact, while Adams was president, he relied more on her than on his own cabinet members for advice. The surprising thing was that the two managed to reconcile their friendship later on.

Did John Adams get along with his president?

Yes, they did. Thomas Jefferson and Johns Adams became close friends at the Cotinental Congress in 1775. this is also where they first met. Later on, especially while Adams was President and Jefferson his vice-president they came to detest one another because their political beliefs were directly opposite to one another's. Each felt the other was betraying the principles for which the Revoluntionary War was fought. It is documented fact that while Jefferson was Adams's vice-president, Jefferson and Madison worked behind Adams's back to undermine him. In the election of 1800 Jefferson ran against Adams and won the presidential election after Adams had served only one term. Adams so disliked Jefferson at that time that Adams did not attend Jefferson's inauguration. After Jefferson had served his two presidential terms, Adams reached out to Jefferson to renew their friendship. Now that neither was directly involved in the politics of the day, each could talk to each other amicably. According to Joseph J. Ellis in "Founding Brothers", Adams knew that history would treat the Jeffersonian side of the political difference more favorably than his side, so he wrote to Jefferson partly as a way to get his side of the story preserved for posterity in his letters. When they both died on July 4, 1826, the 50th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, John Adams last words were "Jefferson survives." or "Jefferson lives." He was wrong. Jefferson had died 5 hours before.
