What do you mean? Hamilton was the original big government guy. If he was alive today and in government, he would’ve been proudly standing up on that liberal podium alongside Frank and Dodd during the 2008 crash arguing for TARP and Porkulus. That’s why Jefferson couldn’t stand him.

I mean you simplify far too much, to the point of distortion.

To say the guy who put our bankrupt nation back on its feet would support our recent attempts at economic suicide is silly.

Ever read "Jefferson and Civil Liberties" by Leonard Levy? When Jefferson became president, it's a wonder he could stand himself!

Jefferson couldn't stand Hamilton because Hamilton was opposed to Jefferson's pets, the Jacobins.

Now let the "anti-Jacobin" neo-Confederates tell us again what a great "conservative" Thomas Jefferson was.
