The correct answer is B) Adams gracefully accepted his defeat although he disagreed with Jefferson.
The answer that best displays Adams' use of the civic virtue "diversity" is "Adams gracefully accepted his defeat although he disagreed with Jefferson."
When President John Adams lost the election to Democratic Thomas Jefferson, he practiced what he preached and gracefully accepted the victory of Thomas Jefferson. He had to acknowledge that the diversity of the American people was an important part of the United States politics established in the Constitution.
Thomas Jefferson and John Adams knew each other well since the pre-revolutionary times, and during the creation of the constitution, when John Adams was a Federalist that supported a strong central government, and Thomas Jefferson was an Antfederalits who was against it.
