Thomas Jefferson not attend the Constitutional Convention in 1787 because He was serving as a minister in France.

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

Thomas Jefferson was an American statesman, diplomat, lawyer, architect, and Founding Father. Thomas Jefferson served in all three of the first three presidential administrations in the United States of America (The U.S. is a country of 50 states covering a vast swath of North America, with Alaska in the northwest and Hawaii). He was the first Secretary of State, serving under George Washington. After Washington stepped down, he competed against John Adams and lost. However, the vote guaranteed him the position of Vice President. Finally, in 1800, he became the third President of the United States.  Previously, he had served as the second vice president of the United States from 1797 to 1801.

Thomas Jefferson did not do anything at the Constitutional convention because he did not attend it. He was serving as Ambassador to France at the time and was in Paris.

Plz help I will report if you give me nonsense answers and this is just a warning
Lelu [443]

I think its A. I'm not entirely sure but it does seem most logical.

<u>Anyways a big reason that these powers are limited is to keep society in a stable place. Tyranny brought onto any civilization over the years has led to its downfall. This balance helps keep both the government and its people under equal terms. </u>

Its not B. because this would allow tyrant rulers to keep their position putting everyone else at a disadvantage to please themselves. This simply doesn't make sense if you were to limit the government.

C. isn't a possibility either because each government only governs over said region.

D. can also be justified under my response to B. since it has the same meaning yet is worded differently/ or relates to more modern leaders I suppose.

Anyways, I hope I was helpful and good luck :D
