I believe you and I saw your google video.  Those buildings should have not come down that way.  Those buildings came down like a demolition crew was there.  It came down too straight.  That takes years of training. Where did that video go.  I was trying to send it to a few people and even my copy of the web address changed.  What's Up With THAT?

No. Thomas Jefferson was the author of the Declaration of Independence not the Constitution of the United States

...I haven't time now to look up quotes, but I know on this web site.  Mr. Barton has done oodles of research on the founders.  I strongly urge you to check this site out - and you could spend hours on it.  We bought several of his tapes, and they are very good.\n...His findings would certainly annoy the ACLU, Americans United for the Separation of Church and State, and others who wish to cloud and/or revise history and rob us of our heritage.\nhttp://www.wallbuilders.com/

The United states was NOT founded on christian principles. George Washington, Ben Franklin and Thomas Jefferson , to name a few, were Deists. " As the Government of the United States, is not, in any sense, founded on the christian religion" Treaty of Tripoli 1796. Read before and passed unanimously by the US  Senate. The founders wanted the wall between church and state  because of religious persecution.  They thought no one religion should be able to use the government to force their views on we the people. John Adams wanted it because he didn't want the government to corrupt religion and Thomas Jefferson didn't want religion to corrupt government. It seems they where both right. But alas this debate will go on forever.

*Chuckling for I learned something here* Thomas Jefferson has no middle name, and neither did 16 other US Presidents.\n\nSee the link for more info...

Hope this helps\n\nWhat year was the White House built? \n\n\nA search on "white house built" led us down the right road. A page from the Encyclopedia Americana online offered detailed information about the mansion that has housed every U.S. president since John Adams (the second U.S. president). \nAlthough he never lived there, George Washington chose the location for White House while he was in office. In 1792, Congress selected a plan submitted by architect James Hoban for a Palladian-style building. The Irish-born Hoban modeled the structure after the Leister House in Dublin. The cornerstone was laid October 13, 1792. John Adams and his wife Abigail moved into the unfinished house in 1800. Construction was ongoing until 1809, when Thomas Jefferson was the occupant. \n\nOver the years, the structure has been renovated, redesigned, and expanded a number of times, although the facade appears largely the same today as it did when it was built. After the British torched the White House during the War of 1812, it was rebuilt and enlarged. In 1901, Teddy Roosevelt arrived with his brood of six, necessitating additional room. Offices on the second floor were turned into living space, and the West Wing, which houses the presidential office and the Cabinet Room, was added. Construction on the addition was completed in 1902. The East Wing, which houses yet more offices, was built in 1942. \n\nUnfortunately, tours of the impressive and symbolic building have been cancelled until further notice due to security concerns. But you can still explore the White House online by taking a virtual tour, such as the famous one Jackie Kennedy gave to a television crew in 1962 or the current official historical tour.

He was taught at the school of the learned James Maury, a reverend, from 1758 to 1760. The school was in Fredericksburg parish, twelve miles from Shadwell, and Jefferson boarded with Maury's family. There he received a classical education and studied history and natural science. At the age of nine, Jefferson began studying the classical languages of Latin and Greek as well as French.\n\nJefferson entered the College of William and Mary in Williamsburg at the age of 16 and spent two years there, from 1760 to 1762. There Jefferson studied mathematics, metaphysics, and philosophy under professor William Small, who introduced the enthusiastic Jefferson to the writings of British Empiricists, including John Locke, Francis Bacon, and Sir Issac Newton. At William and Mary, he reportedly studied 15 hours a day, perfected French, carried his Greek grammar book wherever he went, practiced the violin, and favored Tacitus and Homer.\n\nIn college, Jefferson was a member of the secret Flat Hat Club, now the namesake of the William and Mary's daily student newspaper. After graduating in 1762 with highest honors, Jefferson studied law with his friend and mentor, George Wythe, and was admitted to the Virginia bar in 1767.
