"No country perhaps was ever so thoroughly against war as ours. These dispositions pervade every description of its citizens, whether in or out of office. We love and we value peace, we know its blessings from experience." - Thomas Jefferson
Third President of the United States of America. Libertarian and a fan of natural rights. Despite being a slave owner and suffering a streak of racism, he is still the standard-bearer for freedom of speech and intelligent political discourse.
