Ah dare I say anything that might impinge upon Sainted Thomas Jefferson?
At risk of getting a violation notice. Yes...

Thomas Jefferson seemingly meek & mild wanted power. Jefferson felt that since he knew it all he should control all of America. Mold it in the image he imagined.

And perhaps Hamilton held the same view that he knew what best to do for the new country. The two men or perhaps it best to say the two Ego s clashed amidst the dramatic backdrop of a new nation being transformed from a Confederation to a Federal Union. Both introduced the tactic of engaging surrogates to fight for their beliefs.

Here is where I offend people. Jefferson was way better then Hamilton at double dealing, mud slinging, planting bogus info, in truth the legacy of Jefferson is the Prickly Spine of American Politics. While serving in Washington's cabinent, serving as Vice President under Adamas,, Jefferson worked to bring down both administrations. Amusingly enough Jefferson nearly fell victim to same machinizations he helped organize but finally overcame the Burr - Pickney Gang...

As a Legacy of Hamilton America can still count upon a solid if battered financial foundation though Hamilton's notion of a modestly unbalanced budget has been b^stard^zed by Bush & crew.

Jefferson is to be credited the document 'The Declaration of Independence,' but it is considered offensive by some to mention he had Adams and Franklin to advise & edit. Jefferson had many wonderful qualities but they ought to be measured by the climate of political double dealing that he imparted to the New Republic.

Oh, and because of Jefferson America had its first Dynasty, as the Virginians clung to power for sixteen years.
