He reaches the apex of his career when Thomas Jefferson and Burr tie for the office of President. Behind the scenes, attempts to secure the election for Burr fail, due to the opposition of Alexander Hamilton, who calls Vice President Burr, “a dangerous man, and one who ought not be trusted with the reins of government.” Hamilton refuses to retract his statement, so Burr challenges him to a duel. The two founding fathers meet on the plains of Weehawken, where Hamilton is shot and dies the next day. Burr is indicted, but does not face prosecution. When he faces charges of treason, he is acquitted but forever labeled a traitor. Aaron Burr and his often questionable character put him at odds with his fellow Founding Fathers, who viewed his actions as a serious threat to the ideals of the American Revolution.\n
