Thomas Jefferson won in 1800 with Electoral College votes derived from the three-fifths representation of slaves who could not vote but were partially counted as citizens, prompting Federalists to dub him the "Negro President." In a revealing look at Jefferson's political relationship with slavery, Wills shows how "the slave power" thus granted to southern states influenced his decisions and policies in the creation of the new nation.
