We have different definitions of a patriot. Supporting giving the central government the power to do anything not specifically prohibited by the Constitution is not patriotic in my opinion. This theory of implied powers is why we are in the mess we are in today.
I’d suggest you read Hamilton’s Curse by Thomas J Di Lorenzo which is the best work I’ve read on Hamilton and the contrast between his policies and Jefferson’s more enlightened policies.
I have no need of warmed over Jeffersonian lies against a man who was Washington’s chief ally for 25 yrs. and one of our greatest Founders.
Washington, on the other hand, refused to allow Jefferson’s name to be uttered in his presence after his treachery became known to him.
The first class-war rhetoric was that of Jefferson, now faithfully followed by the Democrats, when he spread falsehoods about banks to rally the no-nothings and mob against them. Like The Disaster today, Jefferson’s economic ignorance practically destroyed the US economy.
Without doubt Jefferson was the most overrated president and the only thing worthwhile in his terms was a complete accident. After Livingston negotiated the Louisiana Purchase Madison had to shut Jefferson up because he did not believe it was constitutional.
He was also instrumental in the South eventually trying to destroy the Union because of his opposition to the Constitution.
I can’t help but laugh at his declaration of war against Burr, scumbag against scumbag. If you want to see an out-of-control president willing to ignore law and decency read about the trial of Burr.
If you want to know Jefferson you cannot depend on the Leftists who love him.
