In this case, I would go with Thomas Jefferson. He heavily supported that all men were created equal, as he wrote in the constitution. Hamilton was a money man, he forgot his roots. All Hamilton would have done is make America have an even larger debt and made our economic problems even worse. Jefferson stood by the constitution while Hamilton would have made it just another paper. Thomas wanted a Democratic government, and Hamilton wanted something like the British system, which america broke away from.

They both had different beginnings, but ended on the same path. Jefferson came from a wealthy family, who gave him a proper education and career. But, he never was stuck up. He always believed in individual rights and equality.He did not believe in people having special privileges, he only cared if they were a US citizen, black or white. He stood by this all the way to writing the constitution, he even wrote that all men were created equal and had inalienable rights. So, we can easily say that Jefferson would be liked by the common man because he supported them, unlike Hamilton who supported the rich and forgot the poor.

Besides supporting individual rights, Jefferson supported a Democratic government while Hamilton supported the British system. It really is not a surprise that he would be in support of a Democratic government because he believed in power to the people. In a democratic government, the people vote for their leaders. If we had the British system, we might have done the same that they did to us. We could have ended up with the same problems Britain had with us. I am sure that the American people would have not been in support of rewriting that section of history. With the Democratic government, power is more spread out, there is no main central power like in the British system. Now, America has been a role model to many other countries, so I can say that Jefferson ended up doing a good job.

Jefferson, overall, had been for the better of America. Some of the things he did still go into play today. Equality is still being fought for, we have a Democratic government, and we still stand by the constitution. Sure we have a debt, but imagine how large it would be if Hamilton went into office, we would be in trouble. So, Jefferson would defiantly be the better choice for America, just look how happy the two ended up being. The looked so great together.
