•
The two parties contesting the election of 1800
were the Federalists, led by President John Adams, and
the Democratic-Republicans, represented by Thomas
Jefferson. Each party believed that the other was
endangering the Constitution and the American republic.
•
The Democratic-Republicans thought they were
saving the nation from monarchy and oppression. They
argued, again and again, that the Alien and Sedition Acts
supported by the Federalists violated the Bill of Rights.
(See pages 290–291.) The Federalists thought that the
nation was about to be ruined by radicals—people who
take extreme political positions. They remembered the
violence of the French Revolution, in which radicals
executed thousands in the name of liberty.
• When election day came, the Democratic-Republicans
won the presidency. Jefferson received 73 votes in the
electoral college, and Adams earned 65. But there was a
problem. Aaron Burr, whom the Democratic-Republicans
wanted as vice president, also received 73 votes.
•
In over 200 years, the United States has had more
than 40 presidents. Many of them were great leaders.
But no president has ever matched Thomas Jefferson in
the variety of his achievements.
•
Jefferson’s talents went beyond politics. He was still a
young lawyer when he became interested in the
architecture of classical Greece and Rome. The look of
our nation’s capital today reflects that interest. When
Washington, D.C., was being built during the 1790s,
Jefferson advised its architects and designers.
•
Jefferson’s passion for classical styles can also be
seen in his plan of Monticello, his Virginia home. For this
elegant mansion, Jefferson designed storm windows, a
seven-day clock, and a dumbwaiter—a small elevator
that brought bottles of wine from the cellar.
•
Jefferson was a skilled violinist, horseman, amateur
scientist, and a devoted reader, too. His book collection
later became the core of the Library of Congress. After
his election, Jefferson applied his many talents and
ideas to the government of the United States.
• The new president had strong opinions about what kind
of country the United States ought to be. But his first
order of business was to calm the nation’s political
quarrels.
• A VOICE FROM THE PAST
• Let us, then, fellow-citizens, unite with one heart and one
mind. . . . Every difference of opinion is not a difference
of principle. . . . We are all Republicans, we are all
Federalists.
• Thomas Jefferson, First Inaugural Address
• One way Jefferson tried to unite Americans was by
promoting a common way of life. He wanted the United
States to remain a nation of small independent farmers.
Such a nation, he believed, would uphold the strong
morals and democratic values that he associated with
country living. He hoped that the enormous amount of
available land would prevent Americans from crowding
into cities, as people had in Europe.
• As president, Jefferson behaved more like a gentleman
farmer than a privileged politician. Instead of riding in a
fancy carriage to his inauguration, Jefferson walked the
two blocks from his boarding house to the Capitol.
Though his chef served elegant meals, the president’s
guests ate at round tables so that no one could sit at the
head of the table. To the end, Jefferson refused to
elevate himself because of his office. For his tombstone,
he chose this simple epitaph: “Here was buried Thomas
Jefferson, author of the Declaration of American
Independence, of the statute of Virginia for religious
freedom, and father of the University of Virginia.”
Jefferson chose not to list his presidency. His belief in a
modest role for the central government is reflected in the
changes he made during his presidency.
