Thomas Jefferson — 200 Years Laterby Bill ColemanJohn Kennedy once said to a assembled group of scholars in the White House: "I think this is the most extraordinary collection of talent, of human knowledge, that has ever been gathered at the White House — with the possible exception of when Thomas Jefferson dined alone."The quotes below could prove his point… because it is quite clear that Thomas Jefferson's words have come to pass.When we get piled upon one another in large cities, as in Europe, we shall become as corrupt as Europe.Thomas JeffersonThe democracy will cease to exist when you take away from those who are willing to work and give to those who would not.Thomas JeffersonIt is incumbent on every generation to pay its own debts as it goes. A principle which if acted on would save one-half the wars of the world.Thomas JeffersonI predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them.Thomas JeffersonMy reading of history convinces me that most bad government results from too much government.Thomas JeffersonNo free man shall ever be debarred the use of arms.Thomas JeffersonThe strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government.Thomas JeffersonThe tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.Thomas JeffersonVery Interesting Quote:In light of the present financial crisis, it's interesting to read what Thomas Jefferson said in 1802:'I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around the banks will deprive the people of all property until their children wake-up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered'.More quotes can be found at: www.brainyquote.com

"Apperently he is keeping them and they are being raised by nurses-they can come back to the US later on and run for office since they are American citizens by birth. https://x.com/jenniferzeng97/status/2074636016137220505"
