Best Answer

Thomas Jefferson was not even born in the same period as the Mayflower compact. The mayflower compact was made 1602 and it was signed by Puritans or Pilgrims looking for religious freedom from the Anglican or catholic church (2 most important religions at the time). Thomas Jefferson was born in 1743 making his time period at least 161 years away from the Mayflower compact. Also puritans were, at Jefferson's time, uncommon and basically not very wide spread.

Hope this helped (much better than the other guys response "because he is SO stupid")

P.S. I'm only 13
