I am all for more on the Founding Fathers, but since they had so many positions all over the map, often hated each others’ guts, (and that was before the Constitutional Convention, Bill of Rights etc.) Making sausage is risky to describe and if one only reveres the “Great men” FFers, you get one half of the truth, if you only know them, through their slaveholding, provinciality, sexism, alcoholism, inability to stay solvent etc. you create another half truth. Are any of us ready for the whole truth?
