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.

What were Jefferson's main beliefs?
AnswerThomas Jefferson, the principal author of the Declaration of Independence and third president of the United States of America, approved of some of Jesus' moral sentiments but questioned the miracles of the New Testament. He produced a thin volume which is called "The Jefferson Bible," edited literally with a razor and paste. He was associated with the Episcopal Church, but stated, "Question with boldness even the existence of a God; because, if there be one, he must more approve of the homage of reason, than that of blind-folded fear." In terms of religious beliefs, perhaps he was an agnostic.
