#3  What's the deal with the close-ups? Are they trying to hide his powdered wig? Heck, they don't even teach Thos Jefferson in school anymore. My own preference is replacing him with Edwin Stanton, Lincoln's Secretary of War.

#1  Little known fact :

Thomas Jefferson carried on a campaign to convince people that tomatoes were non-poisonous (only the leaves were poisonous). . . .

Without Jefferson, there would be no Spaghetti Bolognese. . .
