Thomas Jefferson, Letter to Nathaniel Macon, January 12, 1819 We in America do not have government by the majority. We have government by the majority who participate. Thomas Jefferson We confide in our strength, without boasting of it; we respect that of others, without fearing it. Thomas Jefferson An honest man can feel no pleasure in the exercise of power over his fellow citizens. Thomas Jefferson, letter to John Melish, January 13, 1813 Enlighten the people, generally, and tyranny and oppressions of body and mind will vanish like spirits at the dawn of day. Thomas Jefferson 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. The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restored to the people, to whom it properly belongs. Thomas Jefferson, Letter to the Secretary of the Treasury Albert Gallatin (1802) http://www.quotationspage.com/quotes/Thomas_Jefferson/31 If you have any please feel free to add them

"No one more sincerely wishes the spread of information among mankind than I do, and none has greater confidence in its effect towards supporting free and good government." 1818. "If the children . . . are untaught, their ignorance and vices will in future life cost us much dearer in their consequences, than it would have done, in their correction, by a good education." 1820. "I know no safe depository of the ultimate powers of the society but the people themselves; and if we think them not enlightened enough to exercise their control with a wholesom discretion, the remedy is not to take it from them, but to inform their discretion by education. This is the true corrective of abuses of constitutional power." THE TRUTH WILL SET YOU FREE Honesty and frankness make you vulnerable. Be honest and frank anyway.

Thomas Jefferson Jefferson never said that. The topic should have tipped you off. Welfare wasn't an issue back then For Obama to have won the election only because we didn't have enough photo ID laws would have required 183,000 cases of voter fraud, all by Democrats, and all correctly apportioned among the correct states.
