Alexander Hamilton is one of the two people who are not president to have their face on American currency

Alexander Hamilton is on the 10$ bill

Because he said that slavery was wrong when he owned 300 slaves

Not only the fact that he did own slaves...he was considered a strict constitutionalist, meaning that if he didn't see it in the Constitution it meant NO! In the constitution, it had never stated about aquiring land. He wanted to buy LA from Napolean, not only to increase the size of the US, but to gain control nof the Mississippi river. Due to this, he had made an amendment to the Constitution, and made a "treaty" with Napolean stateing he could aquire the territory of LA. The LA purchase was one way that Jeferson was a hypocrite.

After consulting with Dr. Benjamin Rush of Philadelphia, a leading physician of the day, one of the chief medicines were purgative or cleansing tablets known as Dr. Rush's patented pills or "Thunderclappers." The Voyage of Discovery took along 600 of these tablets. Stephen Ambrose wrote in his book "Undaunted Courage: Meriwether Lewis, Thomas Jefferson and the Opening of the West" that "Dr. Rush thought these pills would cure any number of ills." They were made with calomel (six parts mercury to one part chlorine) and jalap (think jalapeno pepper, used as a purgative).

The medical supplies, bought in St. Louis, totaled $90.69.

They included: lancets, forceps, tourniquets, clysters (enema) syringes, gonorrhea syringes, Peruvian bark (quinine), calomel, jalap, laudanum/opium, Glauber salts (sodium sulfide, a mild laxative), niter (potassium nitrate/saltpeter, a diuretic), tartar emetic (produces vomiting) and mercurial ointment (mercury/fat to soothe irritations).

The list suggests gastro-intestinal complaints were common and expected. The poor flow of bile was believed to cause many infirmities, including constipation and headaches. Dr. Rush's tablets were anti-bilous tablets.

In addition to pains from the hard labor, the explorers suffered wounds from gunshot, snakebite, scalded feet, dysentery, and other injuries and ailments. Besides internal treatment, they used saltpeter for wounds, using bark to make a poultice. Dr. Rush's advice was often prevantative in scope, advising to wash their feet with cold water, to purge the body, to wear flannel next to the skin and other theories. While the medicines and techniques may sound primitive by today's standards (not to mention ignorant about concerns of mercury poisoning), only one man died on the journey.

FDR admired Thomas Jefferson's ability to remember and consider the common people during his presidency. During FDR's own presidency, he concerned himself with the average citizen and spoke of them as the "forgotten man." He admired Alexander Hamilton's ability to uphold a strong federal government.

Thomas Jefferson is remembered for many achievements in his public life. He had served as governor of Virginia, as U.S. minister to France, as secretary of state under George Washington, as vice-president in the administration of John Adams, and as president of the United States from 1801 to 1809. On his tombstone, however, which he designed and for which he wrote the inscription, there is no mention of these offices. Rather, it reads that Thomas Jefferson was "author of the Declaration of American Independence, of the Statute of Virginia for religious freedom, and Father of the University of Virginia" and, as he requested, "not a word more." Historians might want to add other accomplishments--for example, his distinction as an architect, naturalist, and linguist--but in the main they would concur with his own assessment

He was viewed as a tyrant because the colonists and patriouts thought he was using his power unjustly. So it is like an opion.

Well alot, almost to the point of plagarism. But for one point, Thomas Jeffersons famous phrase, Life , Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness was altered from the phrase John Licke used earlier on, Life, liberty, and property

Thomas Jefferson had not yet been elected as President or as any other type of colonial official when he wrote the Declaration of Independence. He was a delegate to the Second Continental Congress, but he was appointed to that position, not elected.

Alexander Hamilton was a founder of the Federalist Party; Thomas Jefferson was founder of the Democratic-Republican Party. The Federalists wanted a strong central government and encouraged the states to ratify the Constitution. The Democratic-Republicans believed the states should retain sovereignty.

No he did not but he did write the draft to the Declaration of Independence

Jefferson reasoned that it was better to own the land than have foreign nations in our backyard. He originally wanted the city of New Orleans but Napoleon needed the money and felt that the land was too hard for France to defend. New Orleans was an important city because people moved cotton by boat down the Mississippi River.

In 1802, President Jefferson sent James Monroe to France to negotiate the purchase of New Orleans. The negotiations also included the US minister to France, Robert Livingston. Napoleon unexpectedly offered to sell all of the French territorial claims in the Mississippi Valley, and the agreement became the Louisiana Purchase.

wote~ is the wrong way to spell wrote very close just forgot an "R". I believe that he wrote the deceleration so there could be freedom.

In the begininng it belonged to France, or to be more specific Napolean. Then the American's bought it, a.k.a the American colonists, and then a few years later the borders were determined and the land was given to America. Also! when the Louisiana purchase was made, it made the American territory almost double in size, and from then on the American colonists were able to prosper and get R!CH.. mostly from trade.

It depends on your geographical area. There are tons of channel four transmitters in this country. They're just spaced far enough apart that they don't interfere with each other. Top range is usually 60 miles or less. this is aload of rubbish

Hamilton wanted a strong central government, but Jefferson believed that it was the right of the people to rule their economy.
