Founding Fathers of America Hourly History

Founding Fathers of AmericaTo understand the United States, it's vital to understand the Founding Fathers-the men whose ideas became the pillars of American society. These seven key figures at the very dawn of what would become the United States of America played different roles, including drafting the Declaration of Independence, advocating ratification of the Constitution, and negotiating with Great Britain for freedom during the American Revolutionary War. While George Washington, John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, and James Madison all served as presidents of the newly formed nation, John Jay, Alexander Hamilton, and Benjamin Franklin showed that the title wasn't necessary to bring forth ideas and changes that would immortalize them forever as founders of one of the most powerful countries in history.
