Thomas Jefferson

1769 Jefferson began construction on the first Monticello.

John Locke was the Father of the Enlightenment. He had a major influence on Jefferson's works and overall mindset. The Declaration of Independence has aspects that are obviously inspired by Locke. "Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness" is not as original as one may believe. Locke's original statement was that a functional government should protect the people's "life, liberty and property."

Chief Justice John Marshall, a Federalist appointed by President John Adams shortly before President Jefferson took office, had a rocky relationship with President Jefferson. Although the two men were distant cousins, they reportedly hated each other.

Jefferson despised Marshall's ideology and opposed the Chief Justice's successful quest to strengthen the Judicial branch of government. Jefferson believed Marshall was manipulative, and that his legal opinions represented "twistifications" of the Constitution.

The Hamilton's

Financial Plan stabilized the country as well as strengthen the industry. the united states was in dept and Alex Hamilton issued new securities bonds.

Improved answer:

What he said plus it was about tariffs and the hated failure excise taxes

the US was in debt after the Rev. war, so Hamilton offered the ppl security bonds to be paid back by the government in a few years. it worked.

Thomas Jefferson believed that unity and harmony were essential for the stability and success of a democratic society. He felt that a cohesive citizenry could better pursue common goals, ensure the protection of individual rights, and maintain peace. Jefferson argued that division and discord could lead to tyranny and conflict, undermining the principles of liberty and self-governance that were foundational to the nation. Ultimately, he viewed unity as a means to foster cooperation and progress within a diverse society.

Yes. No doubt about it. Most of the founding fathers served the country during the revolution. Washington and Hamilton both served in the Contintental Army. (Hamilton even personally leading a charge against British troops.) Adams was in Congress formulating foreign policy, and organizing the Army. Even the elderly Franklin traveled abroad (at personal risk) to forge an alliance with France.

Jefferson, on the other hand, did nothing. (He did help draft the Declaration of Independence, but he denied it at the time because he didn't like the document.)

Jefferson during the Revolution was governor of Virginia. During his term of office, he:

1) Refused to defend Richmond when Washington warned the British were approaching;

2) Fled the city when the British attacked Richmond (Allowing the British to capture supplies and government records);

3) When the British approached Charlottesville, Jefferson fled again, and left the Virginia Assembly to be captured by the enemy;

4) When the British army approched his home in Monticello, Jefferson fled once again.

That is the extent of Thomas Jefferson's contribution to American independence.

Before becoming POTUS, Jefferson wrote the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution of Virginia, served as a Minister (Ambassador) to France, served in Washington's Cabinet, and formed the formed the Democratic Party, as well as being an architect and a writer. While in office, he is probably best remembered for the Louisiana Purchase and the Lewis and Clark Expedition that explored it.

Jefferson was an advocate of limited government. "The best government is one that governs least" is attributed to him. He, along with several others in the early years of the United States, was concerned about setting up a centralized government that would have far-reaching powers. He was very hesitant about supporting the Constitution, and was instrumental in having the Bill of Rights be part of it

Thomas Jefferson lived April 13, 1743 - July 4, 1826

The people of the 1700's didn't have "sports" like we know today. Baseball, football, soccer, and basketball were not invented until the 1800's, but they did do things like horseraces, chess, backgammon, wrestling matches, gambling, and hunting. I haven't read of any games that Madison played. He was a pretty serious person.

• The 1803 deal made by Thomas Jefferson and Napoleon of France. The deal was called the Louisiana Purchase.

no he did not a bl;ack man did can you figure out who

Times was rather hard economically speaking. The US had a war debt to recover from and the French and English ,who were at war with each other, both interfered with American trade.

Jefferson served 2 terms from March 4, 1801 until March 4, 1809.

Jefferson was a believer in states' rights. Because the Kentucky and Virginia Resolutions created the idea of nullification, or that states did not have to follow federal law, it follows that Jefferson would support them.

Virginia

Thomas Jefferson is modest because in his epitaph or grave stone he was nice to people also humble he is a rich person so he could ride a horse to his own party but he walked cause he is a regular man

Thomas Jefferson and John Adams both died on the same day; July 4 1826. Adams outlived Jefferson by only a few hours. Adams was also born in 1735: a full eight years prior to Jefferson, which means that Adams was both older, and lived a few hours later than Jefferson. So the answer to your question is John Adams.

he live in a house cause have the book of it
