Thomas Jefferson

John Adams didnt exactly keep the navy strong. He was the start of the American navy. Thomas Jefferson actually canceled the producution of the navy early in his presidencey for trade related reasons. However he later began to finish the navy to battle pirate ship raiders that were hindering trade to Europe and the carribean.

True

o.O

Thomas Jefferson was president of the United States from 1801 to 1809. One of his achievements was drafting the 'Declaration of Independence' in 1776 before becoming the president. The acquisition of the Louisiana Purchase, when he was the president was another significant achievement. He was a lawyer. He was known as one of the Founding Fathers of the United States of America. He was elected governor of Virginia. He was appointed as minister to France. He was United nation's first secretary of State. He was the second vice president and the third president of the United States.

I believe it is National Debt. (If you have an account and i am wrong please put in the correct answer.)

Truman Capote died from liver failure. He was 59 years old. He died at the home of Johnny Carson's ex-wife Joanne, He was one of America's authors.

He cut the costs of items and reduced the army's size to 1/3 of the original size. he lowered the expenses for government social functions and he eliminated all of the internal taxes on the states.

Life, Liberty, Property.

John Adams was one of the founding fathers and had spent much of life and energy in making the independent United States possible. He finished second in the first two presidential elections and so was the Vice-president. He saw how Washington ran the country and he generally approved. He thus was the natural successor to Washington and was willing to take on the responsibility. He also feared that people like Jefferson would weaken the federal government perhaps to the point of making it ineffective.

Both from virgina both married both slave owners and both were elected President. Washington however freed his slaves in his will and provided money and housing and education for those who were either to old or to young to leave.

It's a trick or magic coin an has little or no value.

"The claim that Thomas Jefferson fathered children with Sally Hemings, a slave at Monticello, entered the public arena during Jefferson's first term as president, and it has remained a subject of discussion and disagreement for nearly two centuries."

There is a lot of debate both from DNA evidence and historical records as to whether he really fathered Sally's children, but no definitive answers.

This is taken from the website below which is the official website of Thomas Jefferson's home, Monticello. For more information, refer to the site below.

According to a letter that John Adams wrote to his friend Timothy Pickering, Adams gave Jefferson three reasons that Jefferson should write the Declaration of Independence instead of Adams. The three reasons, in Adams own words were: "Reason first, you are a Virginian, and a Virginian ought to appear at the head of this business. Reason second, I am obnoxious, suspected, and unpopular. You are very much otherwise. Reason third, you can write ten times better than I can."

If there's something wrong in government, those who have the ability to take action to correct it need to do so in order to protect their own rights along with the rights of future generations.

Russia! People could you please put the right answers from now on!!!!!!

Lewis and Clark

Virtually every delegate signed on August 2, 1776. Only John Hancock signed it on July 4, 1776. James Madison did NOT sign the Declaration of Independence, however he was a signer of the Constitution.

Thomas Jefferson lived in France when he was the minister to France (1785-1789)

The "wall" between church and state is one of the most misunderstood principles arising out of the First Amendment and a correspondence between Thomas Jefferson and the Danbury (Connecticut) Baptists Association. A letter from the Danbury Baptists was concerned with the idea that most local governments were still of the impression that expression of religion was still a privilege granted by local authority, not an "inalienable right" as seems guaranteed by the First Amendment. Jefferson's response was meant to reassure the Danbury Baptists that it was not the place of government to "establish" any church as a national religion, as had historically been the practice throughout Europe, nor to attempt to control any expression of religious belief. The "wall" thus referred to the state being disallowed to restrict those privileges in any way. However, in the ensuing years the phrase "separation of church and state" has been misconstrued as meaning that no public display of religious belief is or ought to be condoned. Nothing could be further from the truth, but this is the debate that still rages today. This is, of course, an oversimplification of the issue, but there are many excellent web sites that discuss the constitutional issues of freedom of religion.

Yes six Martha Jefferson Randolph (1772-1836), Jane Randolph (1774-1775), a stillborn or unknown son (1777), Mary Wayles (1778-1804), Lucy Elizabeth (1780-1781), and Elizabeth (1782-1785)

"Freeborn white men" were the class that Jefferson would have referred to, since the concept of slavery was still viable in Europe in the 18th century. Later leaders, including Abraham Lincoln, questioned how human rights would not apply equally to slaves.

When Thomas Jefferson was inaugurated, he vetoed traditions and formal ceremonies of bowing, and instead he insisted on a casual inauguration. This showed that he wanted change in America, and that he wanted to begin new traditions, and get rid of formal ceremonies.

I hope I helped!! :)
