He married Martha Wayles Skelton, the widow of John Skelton. Thomas and Martha (he called her Patty) had six children, only two living to adulthood.

No.Just James Monroe tried to buy New Orleans

No, the civil war started when Abraham Lincoln was president

Jefferson didn't want to depend too much on industry or manufacturing. He believed that farmers were the "most independent" voters in the US because they didn't depend on anyone else to earn their living. He thought our government would be "virtuous" as long as it was primarily agricultural. Jefferson wanted to help the farmers. He thought low tariffs would help keep prices of the goods the farmers needed low.

I think Thomas Jefferson got ill but I don't know about John Adams!

Doubting Thomas is so called because unlike the other apostles, he refused to believe Jesus had risen from the dead without solid proof in front of him own eyes. He could not have faith with out proof. Jesus appeared to some of the disciples, but Thomas was not with them. When the other disciples told him what had happened he rebuked them and said " Unless I see the nail marks in his hands and put my finger where the nails were, and put my hand into his side, I will not believe it." (John 20:25) Eight days later Jesus appeared to the disciples again and this time Thomas was with them. He stood among them and said "Peace be with you" and then turning to Thomas he said, "Put your finger here; see my hands. Reach out your hand and put it into my side. Doubt no longer but believe" (John 20:26-29). Thomas then said that because he has seen he could believe. Jesus said to him "You believe because you can see me. Happy are those who have not seen and yet believe".

This is where the name Doubting Thomas comes from.

Jefferson kept the national bank that john Adams created. he also took alot of taxes off in order to pay back the money the united states owed.

James Madison and Thomas Jefferson were great friends who helped each other when they were need.

Yes, under the Articles of Confederation there was no U. S. President (although some of the states had Presidents rather than Governors at that time).

In Thomas Jefferson's "Notes on the State of Virginia" he makes it clear that he feels African Americans are "inherently inferior" saying things like they have a distinct smell, they weren't as intellectual as Europeans, weren't as musically talented.

Strict constructionists view the elastic clause, or the Necessary and Proper Clause, with skepticism, believing that it should be interpreted narrowly. They argue that the federal government should only exercise powers explicitly granted by the Constitution, avoiding any expansion of federal authority through broad interpretations of the elastic clause. This perspective emphasizes a limited government and a strict adherence to the Constitution's text to prevent overreach. Consequently, strict constructionists advocate for a clear distinction between state and federal powers, ensuring states retain significant authority.

Strict Constructionism= he more loosly accepted the constitution (example; Louisianna purchase was not consitutional so he made an amendment to the constitution to make it constitutional)

Federal Government= he gave the federal gov. more say over states rights (example; embargo act, no states could trade with outside countries, federal law over all states)

Militarism= Jefferson hated militaries so he greatly reduced the land army to a small police force and the American navy to a "Mosquito fleet" of small gunboats. this was very bad for US because when war of 1812 came they had a very bad defence force. Instead of strengthening the navy when tentions arised Jefferson passed the Embargo Act of 1807 restricting trade with outside nations.

The College of William and Mary

it was about slave owners fighting for political freedom?

Thomas Jefferson most notably uses parallelism in this excerpt from the Declaration of Independence. He repeats the phrase "He has" to list a series of grievances against King George III. By using parallelism, Jefferson creates a powerful and persuasive effect, emphasizing the injustices committed by the King and strengthening the argument for independence.

No. He was a Federalist Author. He published many books such as common-sense by Thomas Paine. (he caused a lot of pain)

That book influenced Christopher Colombus, the first and only man to disgrace the nation of dark-skinners.

He compromised that he would move the capital to the south.

He completed the Louisiana Purchase in 1803 which was in his first term and certainly had an important long term effect . He also opposed the Alien and Sedition Act and set the stage for greater civil liberty.
