Thomas Jefferson facts, information, pictures. Presidents A Reference History. COPYRIGHT 2. 00. 2 The Gale Group, Inc. Merrill D. Peterson. THOMAS JEFFERSON was inaugurated third president of the United States on 4 March 1. Potomac. Raw, brash, and eager, a sprawling village of three thousand peoplea place with a few bad houses, extensive swamps, hanging on the skirts of a too thinly peopled, weak and barren countryWashington was a fitting symbol of the new nation itself. Two shining objects relieved the dismal scene the Presidents House, gleaming under its coat of whitewash, and the Capitol, looking like some truncated Roman monument, its north wing alone awkwardly perched on the summit of a hill. Surrounded by friends, Jefferson walked to the Capitol from a nearby boardinghouse at noon, without pomp or ceremony, he entered the crowded Senate chamber and took his place on the platform between Aaron Burr, his successor as vice president, and John Marshall, the chief justice of the United States. The election that brought Jefferson to the presidency had been bitterly contested by the two political parties, Federalists and Republicans, and only finally terminated on 1. February in the choice by the House of Representatives between himself and his Republican running mate, Burr. Now, after Marshall administered the oath of office, the fifty seven year old Virginian, tall and lanky, with a ruddy face, bright hazel eyes, and graying hair, rose to deliver his inaugural address. The addressa political touchstone for a century to comecombined a lofty appeal for the restoration of harmony and affection with a brilliant summation of the Republican creed We have called by different names brethren of the same principle. We are all republicans we are all federalists. Believing that the mass of Americans, regardless of party, were fundamentally united in their political sentiments, Jefferson hoped to extinguish the strife, hatred, and fanaticismthe spirit of European politicsthat had rocked the Republic during its first decade. The new president looked to the disappearance of parties and a perfect consolidation of political sentiments as the government was restored to its true principles. These principles he traced back to the American Revolution. Equal justice to all men freedom of speech, press, and religion majority rule and minority rights supremacy of the civil over the military authority economy in the public expense the encouragement of agriculture and commerce peace and commerce with all nations, but entangling alliances with nonethese should be the creed of our political faith, said Jefferson. He spoke of preserving the whole constitutional vigor of the general government yet called for a wise and frugal government, which shall restrain men from injuring one another, which shall leave them otherwise free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of labor the bread it has earned. His point was not to place liberty and government in irreconcilable opposition but, rather, to declare his conviction that a free and democratic government, for all its weakness by Old World standards, was, in fact the strongest government on earth. I believe it is the only one where every man, at the call of the law, would fly to the standard of the law, and would meet invasions of the public order as his own personal concern. Sometimes it is said that man cannot be trusted with the government of himself. Can he, then, be trusted with the government of othersOr have we found angels in the form of kings to govern him Let history answer this question. In retrospect, Jefferson called the Republican ascendancy the revolution of 1. Swat Softball Team Nj. Telecharger Microsoft Office Visio 2007 Complet. It was, he said, as real a revolution in the principles of our government as that of 1. Early Career. Born on 1. April 1. 74. 3 in Goochland now Albemarle County, Virginia, and educated at the College of William and Mary, Jefferson rose to fame as the draftsman of revolutionary state papers, first in Virginia and then in the Continental Congress, where, of course, he became the author of the Declaration of Independence. In the Declarations celebrated preamble, Jefferson reduced the natural rights philosophy of the age to a set of first principles that had a profound influence on the course of the American Revolution. Proceeding from these principles, Jefferson himself sought far reaching reforms in his native state. He was only partially successful. The Virginia assembly in 1. Serial Lan Cable here. Statute for Religious Freedom it rejected much more, including his comprehensive plan of public education, although in Jeffersons opinion it was essential to the citizen republicanism of the new nation. He was governor of Virginia 1. In 1. 78. 4, after a brief turn in Congress, Jefferson was sent to Europe on a diplomatic mission. The following year he succeeded Benjamin Franklin as American minister to France. From that vantage point, he observed the coming of the French Revolution. Closely associated with liberal, enlightened circles in Paris, he sympathized with the revolutionary impulse but sought to direct it into moderate and pacific channels of reform. Although he never confused France with America, Jefferson became an ardent friend of the French Revolution and in time assimilated some of its radical doctrine into his political philosophy. In 1. 79. 0, Jefferson was named secretary of state in the new national government. He had approved of the Constitution, especially with the promised addition of a bill of rights, and accepted high office under President George Washington out of a sense of loyalty to him and responsibility to the new experiment. In the conduct of the nations foreign affairs, Jefferson sought to lessen American dependence on British commerce and to open freer channels of trade in a commercial system centered on France. He sought to redeem the trans Appalachian West from the colonialism of the Spanish to the south and the British to the north, which would contribute as well to the pacification of the Indian tribes. He also sought to take advantage of any war that might occur between European powers by the manipulation of American trade and neutrality. Pursuing these goals, Jefferson was frustrated by events and also by the secretary of the treasury, Alexander Hamilton, whose fiscal system turned on British trade, credit, and power and who was as hostile to the French Revolution as Jefferson was friendly. The conflict with Hamilton extended to domestic policy and came to involve fundamentally different conceptions of republican government under the Constitution. Along this division, opposing political parties formed. Washington tried to keep peace in his official family, but the task proved to be impossible. At the end of 1. 79. Jefferson, who had little taste for political combat, resigned and retired to his Virginia home, Monticello. Elected vice president in 1. Jefferson at first hoped for a restoration of political concord in the administration of his old friend John Adams. Instead, partisanship reigned as the nation was again plunged into a foreign crisis growing out of the protracted war between the French republic and the monarchical coalition headed by Great Britain. The administration was Federalist and Jefferson, who had expected that the vice presidency would be honorable and easy, while the presidency was but splendid misery, found himself thrust into the leadership of the opposition party.
