"Jeffersonian Republics did not approve of the excesses regarding the reign of terror, the social upheaval and so forth of the French Revolution however Thomas Jefferson was minister to France in 1789.
A little Revolution was a good thing according to Jefferson “A little Revolution was a good thing and that the tree of liberty needed to be watered with the blood of tyrants and patriots.” The French Revolutionary war continued in the 1790s." - Kimmy Nelson
"Personal Reflections Journal 4
Most of this is solid and well organized. However, in one paragraph you state that Jeffersonians did not approve of the excesses of the French Revolution and then in the next you quote Jefferson on the value of revolutionary violence? Which one is true?" - M Hill

Great Point! Both were true sir! Jefferson didn't like French excesses because Jefferson was trying to follow Washington's lead in avoiding the French Revolution. On the other hand; The American Revolution was necessary to show & keep the embers of love for Liberty flowing. Something I feel that America has lost today even in lieu of all the horrors of war in the Middle East. Thank you for asking!" - Kimmy Nelson
