Jefferson.  Both Jefferson and Adams did do things that were unconstitutional, but doubling our territory definitely beats the Alien and Sedition Acts.

That wasn't until his second term though.

Not sure about the others, but in a 2 way Jefferson-Adams race, I'd definitely vote Jefferson.

Thomas Jefferson did many stupid things during his presidency, especially as far as the Embargo and Non-Intercourse Acts were concerned. Having said that, Jefferson was more a man for smaller government than was Adams. He has my vote.

Adams.  Most of his first term mistakes were due to his placing too much trust in Hamilton, a flaw that I doubt would have been repeated in a second Adams term.
