Answer 1

The correct answer would be A

Answer 2

The correct answer is A) Believe in states rights over a strong central government.

The statement that best describes Jefferson's political party is "Believe in states rights over a strong central government."

Thomas Jefferson was an anti-federalist. He believed that a strong central government was not needed for the young nation that was forming. He had many differences with federalists such as Alexander Hamilton that favored a strong federal government. But Jefferson thought that the risk of a strong central government would be that it could turn into a dictatorship as the case of the British monarchy.
