Popularly known for the sunny language of the Declaration of Independence, a Southern "gentleman", and a father to Sally Hemmings's children.
What is less popularly known is his inability to envision a United States of America as an industrialized and entreprising nation. A great foe to Alexander Hamilton.
Essentially, a well-educated man without the strength to act on his education when faced with questions that dealt with humanity and morality.
