Who do you think is the real American hero?

@Tracos i assume you know he's british.
Wouldn't John Locke be a better choice as he was really the inspiration for the constitution. America has been described as a Lockean experiment

Your assumption is correct :)

@Tracos i didn't think you were an idiot! Just thought Locke was a better foreign candidate.. or maybe Tom Payne?

For home-grown candidates, i'd go with jefferson

@VSonMe Tom Payne aka Thomas Pain/ Thomas Paine was born in Thetford, Norfolk making him British 🙂

@Dlrannie i know, that's why i said foreign candidate. Glad you know of him though!
