A democratic republic.

Explanation:

Thomas Jefferson, one of the first presidents of the United States of America, was of the idea that America should be a democratic nation with republicanism as a quality of the nation. He had been a constant and fervent propounder of the need for a republic state of affairs.

A republic means there is no legal hereditary form of selecting who is to be in power. Without the need for a particular ruling class to hold the power, he provides the possibility of every citizen to be the power over the whole nation. And by suggesting the democratic theme of the governmental structure, he added another opportunity for a rightful citizen of America to become the head of the whole nation. Before he became the President of the United States, a political outlook and approach termed "Jeffersonian Democracy" began to emerge. This movement was committed to the idea of a "democratic republic" form of government, thus bringing about the present day "democrats" and "republicans" in the United States.
