By referring to the mold that Jefferson fit into as a person, I suppose at first glance you would infer he was not a "hippie"(please spell it right from now on! ).
But the ideals that he had for a new way of life free from governing monarchs, theories of human rights and responsibilites for all and not only for the privileged, as well as the compassion he bestowed upon all others, especially his own slaves, would classify him as a "person who deviates from the societal norms", i.e. a hippie/liberal, et al..

I did spell it right initially but it looks weird to write hippieness. <--- see it looks funny.
Anyways, that description seems like it would encompass buddhists too.
buddhist = hippie
