Thomas Jefferson, a spokesman for democracy, was an American Founding Father, the principal author of the Declaration of Independence (1776), and the third President of the United States (1801â1809). In the thick of party conflict in 1800, Thomas Jefferson wrote in a private letter, âI have sworn upon the altar of God eternal hostility against every for of tyranny over the mind of man.â This powerful advocate of liberty was born in 1743 in Albemarle County, Virginia, inheriting from his father, a planter and surveyor, some 5,000 acres of land, and from his mother, a Randolph, high social standing. He studied at the College of William and Mary, then read law. In 1772 he married Martha Wayles Skelton, a widow, and took her to live in his partly constructed mountaintop hoe, Monticello. Freckled and sandy-haired, rather tall and awkward, Jefferson was eloquent as a correspondent, but he was no public speaker. In the Virginia House of Burgesses and the Continental Congress, he contributed his pen rather than his voice to the patriot cause. As the âsilent â of the Congress, Jefferson, at 33, drafted the Declaration of Independence. In years following he labored to make its words a reality in Virginia. Most notably, he wrote a bill establishing religious freeom, enacted in 1786. Jefferson succeeded Benjamin Franklin as minister to France in 1785. His sympathy for the French Revolution led him into conflict with Alexander Hamilton when Jefferson was Secretary of State in President Washingtonâs Cabinet. He resigned in 1793. Sharp political conflict developed, and two separate parties, the Federalists and the Democratic-Republicans, began to frm. Jefferson gradually assumed leadership of the Republicans, who sympathized with the revolutionary cause in France. Attacking Federalist policies, he opposed a strong centralized Government and championed the rights of states. As a reluctant candidate for President in 1796, Jefferson came within three votes of election. Through a flaw in the Constitution, he became Vice President, although an opponent of President Adams. In 1800 the defect caused a more . Republican electors, attempting to both a President and a Vice President from their own party, cast a tie vote between Jefferson and Aaron Burr. The House of Representatives settled the tie. Hamilton, disliking both Jefferson and Burr, nevertheless urged Jeffersonâs election. When Jefferson assumed the Presidency, the crisis in France had passed. He slashed Army and Navy expenditures, cut the budget, eliminated the tax on whiskey so unpopular in the West, yet reduced the national y a third. He also sent a naval squadron to fight the Barbary pirates, who were harassing American commerce in the Mediterranean. Further, although the Constitution made no provision for the acquisition of land, Jefferson suppressed his qualms over constitutionality when he had theto acquire the Louisiana Territory from Napoleon in 1803. During Jeffersonâs second term, he was increasingly preoccupied with keeping the Nation from involvement in the Napoleonic wars, though both England and France interfered with the neutral rights of American merchantmen. Jeffersonâs attempted n, an embargo upon American shipping, worked badly and was unpopular. Jefferson retired to Monticello to ponder such projects as his grand designs for the University of Virginia. A French nobleman observed that he had placed his house and his mind âon an elevated situation, from which he might contemplate the universe.â He died on July 4, 1826.

The first Democrat elected after the Civil War in 1885, our 22nd and 24th President Grover Cleveland was the President to the White House and return for a second term four years later (1885-1889 and 1893-1897). The First Democrat elected after the Civil War, Grover Cleveland was the President to the White House and return for a second term four years later. One of nine children of a Presbyterian minister, Cleveland was born in Jersey in 1837. He was raised in upstate . As a lawyer in Buffalo, he became notable for his single-minded concentration upon whatever task faced him. At 44, he emerged into a political prominence that carried him to the White House in three years. Running as a reformer, he was elected Mayor of Buffalo in 1881, and later, Governor of Cleveland the Presidency with the combined support of Democrats and reform Republicans, the âMugwumps,â who disliked the record of his opponent James G. Blaine of Maine. A bachelor, Cleveland was ill at ease at first with the comforts of the White House. âI must go to dinner,â he wrote a , âbut I wish it was to eat a pickled herring a Swiss cheese and a chop at Louisâ instead of the French stuff I shall find.â In June 1886 Cleveland married 21-year-old Frances Folsom; he was the President married in the White House. Cleveland vigorously pursued a policy barring special favors to any economic group. Vetoing a bill to appropriate to distribute seed grain among drought-stricken farmers in Texas, he wrote: âFederal aid in such cases encourages the expectation of paternal care on the part of the Government and weakens the sturdiness of our national character. . . . â He also vetoed many private pension bills to Civil War veterans whose clams were fraudulent. When Congress, pressured by the Grand Army of the Republic, passed a bill granting pensions for disabilities not caused by military service, Cleveland vetoed it, too. He angered the railroads by ordering an investigation of western lands they held by Government grant. He forced them to return 81,000,000 acres. He also signed the Interstate Commerce , the first law attempting Federal regulation of the railroads. In December 1887 he called on Congress to reduce high protective tariffs. Told that he had given Republicans an effective issue for the campaign of 1888, he retorted, âWhat is the use of being elected or re-elected unless you stand for something?â But Cleveland was defeated in 1888; although he a larger popular majority than the Republican candidate Benjamin Harrison, he received fewer electoral votes. When railroad strikers in Chicago violated an injunction, Cleveland sent Federal troops to enforce it. âIf it takes the entire army and navy of the United States to deliver a post card in Chicago,â he thundered, âthat card will be delivered.â Clevelandâs blunt treatment of the railroad strikers stirred the pride of many Americans. So did the vigorous way in which he forced Britain to accept arbitration of a disputed boundary in Venezuela. But his policies during the depression were generally unpopular. His party deserted him and nominated William Jennings Bryan in 1896. After leaving the White House, Cleveland lived in retirement in Princeton, Jersey. He died in 1908.
