Jefferson thought that the distribution of power among federal, state, county, and local agencies was vital to America’s “system of fundamental balances and checks for the government.” The Senate is still based on equal representation and the House still based on population. 
The problem in government today is special interest groups (factions) who continuously lobby our elected officials. Politicians listen to these groups because they are the same people who donate money to campaign funds and other interests of politicians. These are the people who have the power. 
Thomas Jefferson spoke against a strong federal government and instead advocated states’ rights. The Founding Fathers viewed "factions" as dangerous to the public interest; which is the main problem today in American government.

How did the iran hostage crisis affect american opinion of president carter?
madreJ [45]

The Iran hostage crisis <u><em>affected negatively the American opinion of President Carter </em></u>to the point that it probably cost him his second term as President of the United States. On November 4th, 1979, a group of Iranian students stormed the U.S Embassy in Teheran taking more than 60 Americans hostages. This action was a direct result of President Carter's decision of allowing the deposed Shah the possibility of getting medical treatment in the United States.

The students set their hostages free on April of 1981, 444 days after the crisis began and just hours before new elected President Reagan delivered his inaugural address.
