It was all a part of God's Plan. Two of the greatest statesmen in American history were involved in the ultimate coincidence. Thomas Jefferson, Virginian, and John Adams of Massachusetts were rivals of the highest degree. Jefferson was a States Rights man while Adams believed that power emanated from the Federal Government.
These men did not like each other to the point that, on their death beds one of the last thoughts both had was of their adversary. The dates for both their deaths: July 4, 1826; fifty years to the day after the signing of the Declaration of Independence.
And that's the truth.
