Thomas Jefferson

Yes, Jefferson married Martha Jefferson who was his wife from 1772 until her death in 1782. They had 6 kids together.

They believed that man could create a government. Adams and Jefferson write about the things that make good government. They are worth reading because on of the values they both referred to is "virtues " and their use of the word means truth in government to work for the common good of the people. They were particularly concerned with the government meeting the needs of the common good and in doing so that it would bring the most happiness.

Thomas J. Engibous was born in St. Louis, Missouri in the United States.

yes he did he had a mockingbird; and two bear cubs

He didn't have to. The bulk of work was done by John Addams.

He would be considered a Republican today, because Thomas Jefferson wanted less federal government, and more local and state governments. Which is what Republicans want today. The federalists wanted to expand the federal government. That is what democrats want.

Thomas Jefferson supports the argument for the colonies' separation from Great Britain by outlining grievances against King George III in the Declaration of Independence, emphasizing violations of natural rights and self-governance. He argues that the British government has repeatedly disregarded the colonists' rights, imposing unjust laws and taxes without representation. Jefferson asserts that it is the colonies' right and duty to dissolve political ties with a government that fails to protect their freedoms and welfare. This rationale is framed within the Enlightenment ideals of individual liberty and the social contract.

What does Jefferson think will happen if the Constitution is not followed strictly?

Two words: Mississippi River.

He didn't want to lose access to the Mississippi River, because back then travel on land was much to slow, so they would use the rivers and canals to quickly travel. And that was before the Industrial Revolution and the invention of trains, so water travel was the fastest by far. And New Orleans was a major port.

The Louisiana Purchase. Jefferson (and many others) believed he, as president, lacked authority to make such a deal. The deal was made, through representatives, between Jefferson and Napoleon Bonaparte, who was, at the time, effectively the ruler of France. However, Jefferson's and others' belief that the Purchase was unconstitutional took a back seat to fears of European powers' (at the time, primarily France's) establishing colonies in North America.

I recall two -- I'm forgetting the third. Two of the three are: a) His founding of the University of Virginia b) His authoring of the Virginia Statute on Religious Freedom

New Orleans

Monroe Doctrine

Blue, he loved it because it was the color of his eyes.

The most effective way for a citizen to influence congressional voting on legislation is to vote for a candidate who shares their views. They can also contact their representative to voice their opinions.

No, he rallied opposition against it and published the Kentucky and Virginia Resolves that ordered the end to the Constitution as a whole. He thought the whole system was bad.

Excerpts from Thomas Jefferson:

Those who labor in the earth are the chosen people of God, if ever he had a chosen people, whose breasts he has made his particular deposit for substantial and genuine virtue. (1784)

Men... are naturally divided into tow parties. Those who fear and distrust the people... Those who identify themselves with the people, have confidence in them, cherish and consider them as the most honest and safe... depository of the public interest. (1824)

The mass of mankind has not been born with saddles on their backs, nor a favored few booted and spurred, ready to ride them legitimately, by the grace of God. (1826)

I have such reliance on the good sense of the body of the people and the honesty of their leaders that I am not afraid of their letting things go wrong to any length in any cause. (1788)

Whenever the people are well-informed, they can be trusted with their own government; whenever things get so far wrong as to attract their notice, they may be relied on to set them to rights. (1789)

I am not among those who fear the people. They, and not the rich, are our dependence for continued freedom. (1816)

I have great confidence in the common sense of mankind in general. (1800)

My most earnest wish is to see the republican element of popular control pushed to the maximum of its practicable exercise. I shall then believe that our government may be pure and perpetual. (1816)

Jefferson challenges the textbook account by emphasizing the importance of individual rights and limited government. He argues for the separation of powers and criticizes the British monarchy and its oppressive rule. Additionally, Jefferson expands on the textbook account by articulating the fundamental principles of natural rights and popular sovereignty, which were not as explicitly discussed in the textbook.
