Interesting you bring up Hamilton. Hamilton was of the pro-British camp while Jefferson wanted to align with France. I think for all Jefferson's qualities, he was wrong about France, but that is another topic.

But Jefferson was right about rejecting the pro-Federal government model of Hamilton. I think present history shows that Jefferson was right to warn us about the strong federal government that Hamilton was so much in favor of.

Jefferson was WAY wrong about France. Sober, rational people tried to tell him that the revolution in France was missing the key ingredients of the American Revolution.
