Founding Fathers? Once again your mythical Marlboro Man philosophy slides into the conversation.

You and I have no clue what the Founding Fathers would want. Many were slave owners (and dead before the Civil War broke out) so we really don't have a clue where they would have had loyalties. If you think you can base our now industrialized country populated by people from all over the world with elected office holders from dozens of different ethnic groups to what you think a small group of white guys from England living in an agrarian economy you must have a magic kingdom in your head.
