Jefferson contributed a lot to America. As with Andrew Jackson, you can recognize that without defending the many awful things in his life, his record & his thinking. https://twitter.com/SohrabAhmari/status/1194266515736088581 …

It's interesting to see Hamilton have his day while Jefferson sinks like a stone. This seems to be the case in every era. When one is up the other is down. But I honestly don't know what America would have become without the contributions of both.

The thing is, Jefferson's unique value is such that slavery sticks to him in a way that it doesn't to Washington or Madison, neither of whom was a starry-eyed idealist.
