US Political History


Our Founders were business owners and professionals who were successful enough to contribute their own time and fortunes to establish the United States. They were farmers, surveyors, land owners, doctors, lawyers, tradesmen and State Militia commanders. They had been involved in State politics in the 13 British Colonies. Some were elected by the Legislators of these States to serve in the Continental Congress. State Legislatures increased their opposition to British tyranny. Our first 7 Presidents were Founders.
