Fourth of July | Fearless Founders Inspire Fearless Citizens | Case Foundation

Here's a perfect article for inspiration on Independence Day, the Fourth of July 2012. The blogger begins:
When we look at the history of our great country, seven key political leaders and statesmen stick out as exceptional leaders in their time: John Adams, Benjamin Franklin, Alexander Hamilton, John Jay, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, and George Washington. These Founding Fathers took action and fought for their ideals, creating the land of the brave, the home of the free, the United States of America. These Founding Fathers were, in a word, fearless.
The blogger asks:
Two hundred and twenty-five years after the signing of the Constitution, how would these fearless Founders engage with their communities and support their nation?
And the blog provides some possible answers for six of the seven fearless founders listed above:
  • John Adams
  • Benjamin Franklin
  • Alexander Hamilton
  • Thomas Jefferson
  • James Madison
  • George Washington.
