Thomas Jefferson is my favorite President. Every time I go to Jefferson Memorial I look at the statues, which make me think about Thomas Jefferson. He was a kind man. He believed that every man should have an equal chance in life. Thomas was born on April 13, 1743, at Shadwell. His father was Peter Jefferson, a self-made man of great physical strength and strong will. His mother was Jane Randolph, a member of the colonies’ leading families. Thomas was fourteen when his father died. He was educated in much the same manner as the sons of other wel-to do Virginians. He was a fine dancer, violinist, and singer. He was intelligent, humorous, and warm, which made him a very pleasant companion. He was also a good student, able to go beyond his years.
