Line 17:
Jefferson died on July 4, 1826 -- the fiftieth anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776. [[John Adams]], the second president and Jefferson's sometimes-rival-sometimes-[[Heterosexual Life Partner]], died a few hours later on the same day, his last words being commonly recorded as "Jefferson lives!". Jefferson's face features on the US $2 bill.
 
Sadly, [[Old Shame|he came to hate the presidency]] and [[Canon Dis ContinuityDiscontinuity|he had it left off his gravestone]]. However much he disliked the presidency, history has not shared his opinion. He's generally regarded as one of the best presidents the U.S. has had and frequently tops or nears the top of historical rankings, sharing company with the likes of [[George Washington]], [[Abraham Lincoln]], [[Theodore Roosevelt]] and [[Franklin Delano Roosevelt]]. His face is one of the four atop Mount Rushmore.
