Election of 1800

Revolution of 1800 Thomas Jefferson and the Democratic-Republicans take power from the Federalists Power is peacefully transferred from one party to another U.S. has political legitimacy because the parties respected the system

Political Philosophy “A wise and frugal Government, which shall restrain men from injuring one another, 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” – Jefferson Based upon this quote, explain what you believe Jefferson’s “political platform” was based upon?

Political Platform Small government Lower taxes A government which governs the least, governs the best Lower taxes More liberty, less government
