Explain why jefferson’s ideas require a connection between citizens and their government.

Thomas Jefferson's idea of including the citizens in the decision making of the government stems from his belief that any successful government can only run when it is for the people and by the people.

Explanation:

According to Jefferson, the idea of a successful government is the full participation of the citizens. Nations are for the citizens and he stressed the need for these citizens to be actively part of the decision making of a democracy. The government is for the people and by the people, thereby making the citizens the backbone of a successful government where everyone lives peacefully and in harmony. That is why he proposes the idea of having the citizens and the government in the same level, a connection between them to make the nation a success.
