Thread Name: BS: Thomas Jefferson
Subject: RE: BS: Thomas Jefferson
One of the great things I love about Jefferson is when he , with others penned the Bill of Right, for all men, Jefferson meant it. All men including, blacks, whites, native Americans, everyone. His thought process is we are all American's now , one nation. With this thinking however comes the unknown side effects, west movement will destroy a people and culture. He didn't know native American's or how they lived, no one really did. It was we are all Americans, all share this great nation and we are all one ... We are a free nation for everyone.
That is why people think he said one thing , did the other .. Not true at all ... He meant it, exactly what he wrote .. but history will proved that it takes much more then the words to eventually get us to his dream....
