    I am the father of our country. Look up at this dino with awe. I am dino: Hear me roar.
    Kind of thought it would be Ben. Ever since I was a kid and my father said his founding father was Franklin, I became kinda partial to him, reading a book about his life, growing up to admire him on the History Channel and so forth.
    Thought how Washington sacked Trenton was really cool, though. But to get dino across the Delaware River, they'd need a bigger boat,

    According to the test, I got Ben Franklin, but I am definitely a blend of lot of the Founding Fathers. Where was Patrick Henry among the choices?!

    I got George too, but I found the last question the most difficult to answer: How would you get your point across. My _actual_ answer was 'all of the above'. I chose Take Action because it was probably what distinguished me the most from all of my friends who would also State Opinion, Write Opinion, and Draw Diagrams...all of which I would also do, in different situations.

    Another Ben Franklin here. I am not really surprised. I read his "...Autobiography & Other Writings" when young and no other autobiography has made a greater impression since.

    When asked what political party I am.
    I always say," I am a Jeffersonian", because I follow the consitution not any political parties agenda!
    I also believe in the creed, "To free the oppressed."
    So I guess I am a 50/50 mix of Jefferson and Major Robert Rogers.

    The test would not load, but I believe Ben b/c I tend to be a peacemaker when there are disagreements and I am an optician who hand makes franklin bifocals the old fashion way (I always joke that he taught me how) for special prism eyeglasses. I also have no problem (so far) handling electricty. ZAP!!!!

    Arron Burr, because as vice president, he had the guts to shoot Alexander Hamilton. The very liberal Hamilton used unfounded personal attacks against Burr who opposed, among many other things that Hamilton wanted, the setup of a National Bank so that the government could immediately start printing phony money. I recommend reading a great biography of Burr called "Fallen Founder" by Nancy Isenberg

    I came up with Jefferson. I admire Jefferson's intellect, but I would prefer Thomas Paine. I lean towards his kind of radical. When I write emails to my Congress person and Senators they're on the smouldering side. But, in the long run I'll go for Guns, Ammo and Body Armor.

    I am Ben Franklin. Although I lean toward feisty John Adams. But still, there is no doubt in my mind that the greatest founder was George Washington. Any argument?

    Score another Benjamin. (As a capitalist, an inventor, and an imagineer, I can dig it... but I never liked some of his "limited income" schemes...)

    I'm a Franklin, You're a Franklin, He's a Franklin, She's a Franklin, Wouldn't you like to be a Franklin, too?

    I got to the first question, "What would you change if you were president?" and decided not to play. All the choices were illegitimate, as NO president should have power over any of the options. I don't take phony tests. If I was any of them I would be John Locke.
