Which enlightenment thinker had the greatest impact on Thomas Jefferson and the declaration of independence?
John Locke
How did John Locke impact the Reformation?
A:John Locke is regarded as one of the most influential of Enlightenment thinkers. He influenced Voltaire, Rousseau, John Madison and Thomas Jefferson, but lived a little too late to influence the Reformation. He asserted that revelation can not be admitted against the clear evidence of reason, and was a strong advocate of religious toleration.
How many Chief Justices did Thomas Jefferson appoint?
Zero. Thomas Jefferson's predecessor, John Adams, nominated Federalist John Marshall to the office of Chief Justice of the United States in early 1801, just months before Jefferson's Presidential inauguration. John Marshall lead the US Supreme Court from 1801 until his death in 1835, a tenure that far exceeded Jefferson's.President Jefferson did nominate three Associate Justices to the Court, however. The first, William Johnson, was nominated in 1804 and served until 1834. He was known to be independent minded and represented the ideals of the Democratic-Republican party.Jefferson nominated Henry Brockholst Livingston in 1807. Livingston served until his death in 1823, but disappointed the Jeffersonians by adopting John Marshall's style of jurisprudence, and voting with Marshall on most issues.Congress passed "An Act establishing Circuit Courts, and abridging the jurisdiction of the district courts in the districts of Kentucky, Tennessee, and Ohio" in February 1807, adding the Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals and a seventh seat to the Supreme Court, which allowed Jefferson to nominate a third member of his party to the Federalist-leaning judiciary.Unfortunately, Thomas Todd, who served from 1807 until 1826, turned out to be the biggest disappointment of all, as he consistently voted with Marshall, and wrote only eleven opinions during his 19-year career. Historians consider Todd the least important justice in the history of the Court.Because two of Jefferson's three nominees fell in step with the strong-willed John Marshall, Jefferson had very little impact on the direction of the Supreme Court.
Who appointed the midnight judges?
The "Midnight Judges" were 42 Federalist justices of the peace President John Adams appointed immediately before his administration ended and Thomas Jefferson's began. They were appointed because Adams realized the Federalist party was losing power and control in government to the Democratic-Republicans (who also called themselves "anti-Federalists,").The Midnight Judges were symbolically important, but had little judicial power and only served five-year terms. They were appointed as a matter of patronage (a reward to a loyal political supporter) under the Organic Act of 1801 (for the District of Columbia), and were not part of the court-packing scheme devised under the Judiciary Act of 1801, that allowed Adams and the Federalist-dominated Congress to appoint a number of judges to Article III constitutional courts.Those judges represented a real problem for incoming President Jefferson, because they received lifetime appointments and would have had a political and ideological impact on the US government for decades to come. The Midnight Judges, on the other hand, posed no political threat, but Jefferson allegedly believed John Adams had appointed an excessive number and withheld some of their commissions. They may also have been an annoying reminder of Adams' clever court-packing scheme, but that's a different story.Several of the Midnight Judges whose commissions were withheld attempted to compel their delivery by filing suit in the US Supreme Court. These men played an important role in a landmark US Supreme Court case, Marbury v. Madison, (1803), and were ultimately of more historical importance than the higher federal judges.For more information about Marbury v. Madison and the midnight judges, see Related Questions, below.

How did Jefferson and Madison use trade as a weapon?
Jefferson and Madison used trade embargoes as a weapon during their presidencies. They believed that by restricting trade with other countries, particularly Britain and France, they could exert economic pressure and protect American interests. However, these embargoes ended up hurting the American economy more than their intended targets, and were largely ineffective in achieving their goals.
