Hey lilkrazyk...,

I love Thomas Jefferson's mind. He is the real founder of our country. Read the following article:

I think you should be able to see that Freedom of the Press, Sedition, and Individual rights are at the top of the list. I do not find a nice tidy list of 3 specific issues though.

The last web site says the campaign issues were The Jay Treaty and French Revolution.

The Campaign issues of the election were the Jay Treaty and the French Revolution. John Adams and his party supported the Jay Treaty. Thomas Jefferson and the Anti Federalists opposed the treaty because it favored the British over the French. This in turn led to the second issue, the French Revolution. The Federalist did not want to support the French because they did not want another costly war with Britain. The Jeffersonian party on the other hand felt that it was the duty of the United States to support the French because of the French assistance during the American Revolution.
