The cult of the founding fathers has always astonished me. Here you have these SLAVE OWNERS (enough said) who had nothing but disdain for the average American, wanted to genocide the Native population, and repeatedly resisted efforts to build an actual free society (even based on the ideals they claimed to hold), but we're told we should look back at these people for moral/ideological guidance?
