Thomas Jefferson (13 April 1743 – 4 July 1826) was a Statesian lawyer, diplomat, and politician who served as the third President of the United States from 1801 to 1809. Jefferson is notable for his Presidency, which involved the Louisiana Purchase, Indian removal, the First Barbary War, and the Embargo Act; as well as his role in authoring the United States Declaration of Independence. He owned slaves and was one of the leading racist ideologues of the early United States.[1] Before his Presidency, Jefferson served as Governor of Virginia, Minister Plenipotentiary to France, Secretary of State, and Vice President.
