Thomas Jefferson was VERY important because not only did he write the Declaration of Independence, but when he was President (he was the third) he made the Loiuisiana Purchase, which is when he bought all the land West of the colonies. If it wasn't for him we wouldn't have 2/3 of what the US is today!
