The Revolution Continues!!!

The Founding Fathers created an independent nation and gave shape and substance to the system of government that has endured longer than any other republic in the history of the world. Some of the credit for this 200 + year record must inevitably go to those who kept it going, but those who risked so much to make this an independent nation and those who created and initiated the American system of government must always hold a special place in the shrine of American heroes.

The Founding Fathers came from no single mold: most were men of property, a few were very rich. Lawyers, doctors, merchants, soldiers, printers, scientists, farmers and planters-they were men of achievement; men who had put to good use the freedom and independence that they had enjoyed and refused to relinquish; active men who won their place in the New World by their own industry and merit (except for a few who inherited wealth) ; men who, having tasted tyranny, valued freedom and yet recognized the importance of law-and of limited power in government; men who could finally agree that the ultimate power of the state should repose, not in any man or body of men, but in a body of laws- the constitution.

The Founding Fathers faced a combination of challenges and opportunities unique in human history. In the eighteenth century, in a world where kings and queens exercised almost absolute power of life and death over their subjects, they dared challenge such power, and, once successful, they went on to create as perfect a government system as they could, and then proceeded to make it work.


All of the signers of the declaration of independence features those men who made the most significant contributions to the founding of the nation-those who conceived and promoted the idea of independence from Britain, those who dared to think in terms of a single new nation, a nation of freedom.

Will you dare to keep this nation free? We haven't but just begun this new revolution.
