Interesting side note: Jefferson had red hair. Kinda makes him seem real, doesn’t it?
TJ wasn't much of a speaker. He suffered from a stuttering problem well into early adulthood. Because of this, he did not deliver the State of the Union Address in person. He submitted it in writing. The practice of delivering it in person did not start again until the tenure of Woodrow Wilson.
That makes him (Jefferson) seem even more real to me.
Both he and Washington were very tall for their day (6'2").
