Jefferson can be described as an anti-Federalist, while Hamilton was a Federalist. Jefferson believed in a small but powerful peacetime navy, no peacetime army, and minimal government intrusion in people’s lives. If Jefferson were alive today, this contributor (a Republican) believes that he would be neither a Republican nor a Democrat. I think he would most likely be a Libertarian.
