Ocupation: 2nd U.S. President
Life: October 30, 1735 - July 4, 1826
Birthday: October 30
Death: July 4
There is nothing I dread so much as the division of the republic into two great parties, each arranged under its leader, and concerting measures in opposition to each other. This, in my humble apprehension, is to be dreaded as the greatest political evil under our constitution.
