Thomas Jefferson is known as the "Father of the Declaration." He was very well educated, having private tutors as a child and going to the college of William and Mary as a young adult. He particularly looked to the ideas and beliefs of John Locke, who believed that a proper government should protect the "life, liberty, and property" of it's citizens. If that phrase sounds very similar, it's because Jefferson wrote in his Declaration that a just government protects the people's "life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness." It is debated on what qualifies as the "pursuit of happiness," but let's just agree that it is within the boundaries of law.

No, Thomas Jefferson thought that it would be unfair to the original bondholders who had sold their bonds to the speculators.
Both John Adams, and Thomas Jefferson, just two of the great founders and leaders of the U.S in no doubt had one of the best elections. Being that the United States was just starting out, and America's President George Washington returned to his home in Mt. Vernon, John Adams was obviously the next man for the job. Adams having a great mind, loud mouth and experience as a lawyer, congressman, and Vice President to Washington, it was in the mind of Americans to leave the call of duty to him. Jefferson following Adams also had great experience, also being a Vice President to Adams, and a congressman himself. Although Adams and Jefferson were great friends, the election of 1800 would split them for a long term concerning their political views on how the United States would be made up. In the end both founders were great leaders, and sacrificed their lives for what is now what we call the United States of America. We can all agree it was a blessing for all of us, including Adams and Jefferson, that the election of 1800 gave us the quiet, but most intelligent Thomas Jefferson. But no one of course could replace the great tongue of John Adams.:)
