Thomas Jefferson was one of this country's greatest statesmen. He drafted the Declaration of Independence, and was the nation's third president.

Leadership Attributes:

Thomas Jefferson was an idealist whose foreign policy was based on a moral tone. He supported France, which he saw a enlightened and just, against England, which he viewed as corrupt. His domestic policy was equally idealistic. He opposed Alexander Hamilton's plan to create a Federal banking system, and came to regard the consolidation of power at the federal level as a diabolical plot to subvert the true meaning of the American Revolution.
