Wow...Zombie Jefferson could see the future! What did he say about our invasion of Iran in 2006?

hamilton = BIG GOVERNMENT control, such as interstates commerce, you gotta need a big government to regulate this.
jefferson = small government, such as family farm.

jefferson wanted more of a republic.
