How was thomas Jefferson able to become the president?
Jefferson was one of this nations greatest thinkers. As the writer of the Declaration of Independence he was well known and as one of the men in France working to get funds for the war. In the presidential election against Adams he lost to Adams as the second president. The campaign between the two men was very dirty and they called each other really bad names. Since it was among congress it was mainly by letters and as gossip. Jefferson's philosophy concerning government was the opposite of Adams, but the power was with the Federalist members in congress so he lost to Adams. After the Adams administration he wasn't too popular and congress was ready for a change with Jefferson.
