He was the first president inaugurated in Washington. And the first president to live his entire presidency in the WH (John Adams only lived there during the transition period from him to Jefferson).

Very Interesting
he took his job seriously in virginia and made a vow to leave no virgins in the state
Passed my college history test, that I found out about last minute appreciate it
The United States Declaration of Independence was actually inspired and influenced by the widespread publication and circulation of pamphlets of "Common Sense" by Thomas Paine! Before the widespread circulation of "Common Sense", there were no Revolutionary patriots who openly advocated American Independence from British Empire! I just don't know why Thomas Paine is not considered as one of the Founders of the United States!
"He had a prolonged affair with slave Sally Hemings, who bore him multiple children."
Me: "Why does that sound so familiar..." *hums out 'What'd I miss'* "...Sally be a lamb, darlin', won't cha open it?" OH NOOOOOOOO
I thought that exact same thing. From Hamilton, the Broadway show. Nes pas?
LOL, that is what I was thinking, it is scary to think about though and how they were able to slide that line in without people (maybe just me) knowing
Thomas Jefferson is the 8 of Diamonds 💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎 the Sun 🌞 Card Blessings and Hugs 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
The power of "good" !!!!!
One thing: How could any slave owner have an affair with one of his slaves? In all common sense, what slave willingly has a "love affair" with someone who has sold, beaten raped and dehumanized their family members and or them? Im so sick of hearing about this so called love affair, when we all know what Jefferson said about slaves.
THAT IS TRUE it even says it in my book I LOVE SCIENCE, HISTORY, AND MOREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE. I LOVE THIS VIDEO YOU DID A GOOD JOB ON THIS VIDEO
Am I the only one related to Thomas Jefferson here he’s my eleventh great grandfather
Im related!!! I’m a stranger to him :D
What an honor.
People say take down his statues. Obviously it wasn’t good that he owned slaves, but he did so much for this country, I don’t think it’s right to tear down his statues.... teach what he did right, and wrong.
He also grew hemp, and opium. His remaining poppy plants were just recently eradicated from his estate between 2015-2020
Def NY George Washington had slaves
This is hugee
I’m related to President Thomas Jefferson!! He was my great grandfather’s fourth cousin, seven times removed. Kind of cool!! 😂😂
History per the writers of Jefferson's time and editors and writers along the way.
I saw at my chromebook
Came here after learning that horrid Thomas Jefferson Miku Binder thing
after watching ancestrydotcom key and peele.... i went here
Ok so if he left his slaves free. Were would they all go in a time such as that?
🗣️👌

Hi
Andrew jackson my bad
I saw he name on call of duty mobile
That rumor of Thomas Jefferson having an affair with Sally Hemings is making me sick!!!
@@calistafarrell6232 The evidence is overwhelming that it was his brother who fathered her kids.
I know some of you are convinced that the rumor of Thomas Jefferson having an affair with Sally Hemings is true, but what I mean by rumor is that the whole thing is gossip, lies, untrue. I for one don't believe that about Thomas Jefferson is true, I believe it is false, many people lie too about Thomas Jefferson about some things such as that, and that's a rumor because it's gossip and lies, simple, that's just what I believe, even though I didn't study everything about him. I just have common sense enough to learn and know that Thomas Jefferson would ignore all that gossip about him because he knew how bad the press was especially to him. So rumor, gossip, lies, it's all the same thing to me. I don't like people or the press teasing Thomas Jefferson and accusing him for something he didn't do. People who write stories about that of Thomas Jefferson get famous for that, right, because fame is everything when it comes to lies being legend or popular. Well to me, the whole thing is sick because I don't believe he would ever have done that to Sally Hemings.
@dina bissell No they proved she was descended from a member of the Jefferson family. There were 8 other Jefferson males living in Monticello.
She was Jefferson’s half sister in law
This video neglects to mention that Thomas Jefferson was an abolitionist.
he was not, just because he had slaves (which by the way, almost everyone did back then) does not mean that he was an abolitionist.
Historical documents record that Jefferson did in fact campaign for the abolition of slavery. His rough draft of the Declaration of Independence condemned slavery as a crime against humanity and his anti-slavery clause was removed by congressional delegates during review for reasons unknown.
@@sprint429 Thank you scott!
@@sprint429 It was because out of fear of losing Southern state support that's why.
Who was Sally Hemings?
@Olivia Barry There's very little evidence of that.
@Dennis there is lots of DNA evidence to prove differently😂
little evidence, huh? then why are many of Thomas Jefferson's children and grandchildren black?
they where buried in his family grave, is that enough evidence?
@@Dennis-nc3vw He couldn't resist that "badonkadonk. lol
Hey that me
Thomas Jefferson do you know Hamilton?
@@hana_flower yes. why ?
Thomas Jefferson how do you feel about him?
@@hana_flower happy
You like him...!?
Hello! I just want to point out that he was not born in Virginia he was born in Britain but he lived almost his whole life in Virginia so he declared that he is from Virginia
He was actually born in Shadwell, Virginia. I don't know where you got the idea that he was born in Britain.
Alexander Hamilton was the one that was born British not Thomas Jefferson.
And john marshall
Thomas Jefferson 3rd President
Firm of Pepperdine from our trust.
Thomas Jefferson 76s 😩
Christianity or Paulism has never made sense to me I was pleased to see what Thomas Jefferson
had to say about him.
In a letter to William Short in 1820, Jefferson described many biblical passages as "so much untruth, charlatanism and imposture". In the same letter Jefferson states he describes Paul as the "first corrupter of the doctrines of Jesus".
Watching After kcr.telangana cm said
3. Jefferson
Helllo
how are you
Jefferson did not have a relationship with Sally Hemings
he never toughed sally hemming....this video gets a thumbs down for FAKE NEWS!!!!
But he did though I don't know why you guys want to keep denying it DNA evidence and his own descendents admitted they literally gave Sally her own gallery in Monticello
He was born in April 23
Neither, it was April 14th
Its was 13 of April
In fact, I'm not sure I like Thomas Jefferson since he's so complicated to understand! I'm such a meltdown when there's something I don't agree with Thomas Jefferson, but Abraham Lincoln was worse, I was unhappy with Abraham Lincoln, in my thoughts, so I guess I still like Thomas Jefferson.
@Bradley Taft He killed the republic and states rights making us a national government instead of a federal one.
If there is anyone I know here reply “hi”

I understand Thomas Jefferson taking sides when it comes to one party having more votes than the other. But to hate democracy, that's something I don't agree with Thomas Jefferson about. I'm okay with someone hating the democrats such as the ones we have today, but I'm not sure I'm okay with someone hating democracy. I wouldn't agree with Thomas Jefferson on hating democracy because he's too political about party. To me, democracy isn't about being democrat or about party, it's about peaceful freedom. Anyone who's against democracy is harsh and hateful, aren't they? That's why I don't agree with Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, or even George Washington or Benjamin Franklin about hating democracy. I'm okay with taking sides like what Thomas Jefferson would want, but I don't like him going against the word democracy. There are good people who support democracy and I don't think that the ideal of the word democracy is such a bad thing. So I don't agree with Thomas Jefferson about democracy.
what
The United States is a republic, not a democracy. Thomas Jefferson believed in having a constitutional Republic (which the US is), he believed in Republicanism. Democracy is bad because it's tyranny of the majority over the minority. Imagine 51% of the people deciding everything for the other 49%, that's a democracy. A Democracy is two wolves and one sheep deciding what's for dinner. You've been misled to think the US is a democracy. Our system is s democratic republic, which allows more freedom
Planet Express, I'm glad you understand great deal of politics between democrat and republican, but anyone like you who would think I'd be democrat just because I was just saying what I thought of the word democracy in general aside from politics obviously don't understand I'm not a democrat, and of course you have misread the part where I said, " I'm okay with someone hating the democrats..." I'm glad you can take on politics with that sort of thought like a political person with common sense. But common sense is not just to do with politics or party but also real life. Look, I was only being honest of what I thought of the word democracy in general, not favoring myself like I'm a democrat, like you think! I was thinking in freedom when I mentioned the word democracy as to what I thought of it to me, and that's why I wouldn't hate the word democracy and wouldn't agree with the Founding Fathers for hating democracy. I said these things because I felt like they were too political about sides and numbers of votes, but I know this nation is not meant to be democrat which is why it is not a democracy, however democracy is freedom isn't it? Is democracy for freedom? That's why I was honest on my thought. And if you don't like my honesty, too bad, I'm only saying how I feel. I don't need too much freedom in life or our country but freedom is important to me. I won't say anymore after this comment, Planet Express, so you can leave me alone! I care about Thomas Jefferson and his views, I just don't like him being too political about party. Okay yes, I do mind when someone takes sides, because as to party I mean the ideal of being political. I don't mind Thomas Jefferson supporting republicans though Thomas Jefferson and James Madison were democratic-republicans. But that was their party as presidents and I respect them for their position. Now Planet Express, if I were democrat, I would hate all the republicans, which that's political and I wouldn't hate the republicans. In fact, I don't like the democrats today. I would be about party if I were democrat, but I'm not about party because I'm not democrat. It's the democrats that are about party today more than the republicans, more than anyone! And Planet Express, if there's something Thomas Jefferson and I don't agree on, stay out of it, let it be between him and me then! Just because I say how I feel, and what I think about democracy doesn't mean I support the democrats and I'm not offended by the republicans. It was the word I was after on honesty, not party by being democrat! I just don't agree about political factors such as your two wolves and one sheep like you do, Planet Express! Otherwise, Planet Express, leave me alone with my feelings and comments!!!
@@kkhunt7 I guess you prefer political sides over reality and other common sense in this world!!! Obviously, you don't respect someone's honesty or mine about the word democracy and why I don't agree with Thomas Jefferson, but that's just my opinion. You need to stop bullying me about considering me a democrat when I was only being honest of what I thought of the word democracy and why I don't agree with Thomas Jefferson about hating democracy. Let me express my feelings and stop assuming I think this country is a democracy, I know it's not a democracy because it's not democrat!!! So from now on leave me alone!!!
@@kaylamontanez4238 I'm not bullying you at all. What are you talking about??? And I never said you were a democrat. I'm wasn't talking about the two political parties. I think you might be confusing terms.

He was a slave driver :(
he talked about releasing them before anyone
Who hated slavery and fought it as a politician.
Slavery was imposed on America before it was America. While serving on the House of Burgesses in Virginia around 1765 (prior to America) he was outspoken against slavery and attempted to enact legislation to emancipate slaves and outlaw slavery. One of his first proposals in the House during his tenure was to permit slave owners to free their slaves without seeking permission from the governor or council. Although his ideology as President can be questionable, he did not permit slavery in the newly acquired land from the Louisiana Purchase.
@@billybobbob3003 All he was was talk he still had hundreds of them.
@@flora-3603 ......yep he's all talk that's why he created the declaration of independence lol get real kid.
