4 marzo 1801 anni - Thomas Jefferson is inaugurated as the third president in Washington, DC.

Descrizione:

cause: Jefferson came into politics because he had some very strong ideas for the future of the country. When he decided to run for president, Thomas Jefferson possessed impressive political credentials and was well-suited to the presidency.
effects- Jefferson's performance as President justified divergent conceptions of executive power. Known for his hostility to strong central government and the judicial overreach of the Supreme Court under John Marshall, Jefferson nonetheless jettisoned strict construction when the nation's vital interests were threatened. Self-preservation—the first law of nature and nations—took precedence over the constitutional limitations that he scrupulously observed in peacetime. Andrew Jackson embraced this robust conception of his presidential power, even as Whig opponents drew inspiration from Jefferson's anti-monarchical precepts.
