The Toy Presidents are now half-priced! They have never been removed from their original boxes. The Toy Presidents are being sold as-is, with no returns or exchanges, because some have dead batteries. These batteries were available from Toy Presidents, Inc., for $1 apiece, and they may be available from local stores that sell batteries. Remove the battery and take it with you during your search.
This is a great opportunity to snatch up a bargain before they’re all gone!
Scientist, statesman, scholar, educator, and author, Thomas Jefferson appears near the top of the list of this country's greatest presidents. Mr. Jefferson helped craft the Constitution and the Bill of Rights, negotiated the Louisiana Purchase, and, in general, lay the foundation for these United States. We owe a lot to this great leader, and now we can all hear some of his greatest sound bites in the form of this 12-inch talking presidential action figure. Jefferson's Audio Clips: 001-029 We hold these truths to be self evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their creator with inherent and unalienable rights. That among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. 002-040 A bill of rights is what the people are entitled to against every government on earth. 003-041 By a declaration of rights, I mean one which shall stipulate the freedom of religion, freedom of the press, freedom of commerce against monopolies, trial by juries in all cases, no suspensions of the habeas corpus, no standing armies. These are fetters against doing evil which no honest government should decline. 004-030 The Declaration of Independence is the declaratory chapter of our rights and of the rights of man. 005-027 It is to secure our rights that we resort to government at all. 006-033 The example that we have given to the world is single: that of changing our form of government under the authority of reason, only without bloodshed. 007-043 The first principle of a good government is certainly a distribution of its powers into executive, judiciary, and legislative, and a subdivision of the latter into two or three branches. 008-002b The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants. 009-028 I subscribe to the principle that the will of the majority, honestly expressed, should give law. 010-026 The will of the people is the only legitimate foundation of any government and to protect its free expression should be our first object 011-013 The greatest good we can do our country is to heal its party divisions and make them one people 012-044 Every male citizen of the commonwealth liable to taxes or militia duty in any county shall have a right to vote for representatives for that county to the legislature. 013-012 Every difference of opinion is not a difference of principle. We are called by different names, brethren of the same principle. We are all republicans, we are all Federalists. 014-015 A wise and frugal government, which shall restrain men from injuring one another, shall leave them otherwise free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement and shall not take from the mouth of labor the bread it has earned. This is the sum of good government. 015-025 The most sacred of the duties of a government is to do equal and impartial justice to all its citizens. 016-011 A democracy is the only pure republic, but impractical beyond the limits of a town. 017-001 If a nation expects to be both ignorant and free, it expects what never was and never will be. 018-003 Those who desire to give up liberty in order to gain security do not have nor do they deserve either one. 019-039 Our principles are founded on the immovable basis of equal right and reason. 020-004 The natural progress of things is for government to gain ground and for liberty to yield. 021-006 When the government fears the people, there is liberty. When the people fear the government, there is tyranny. 022- 045 I should like better that the president should be elected for 7 years and incapable forever after. 023- 042 I believe the states can best govern our home concerns and the general government our foreign ones. 024-010 The constitutional freedom of religion is the most inalienable and sacred of all human rights. 025-014 I believe this the strongest government on earth. I believe it is the only one where every man, at the call of the law, would fly to the standard of the law, and would meet invasions of the public order as his own personal concern.
