Founding Fathers - who from these days?

[gsarg]

If you had to put together 10 people to start a new group of Founding Fathers, who would you pick?

 

[Dr. HK]

where is your list?

 

[Glocktogo]

Does it have to be real people, or can we add fictional characters too?

 

[uncle money bags]

My immediate family and a few army buddies.

 

[IndVet]

First ten chicks I see at the Playboy Mansion.

 

[Glocktogo]

Regardless, I nominate Anton Chigurh. We give him a list of naysayers and tell him not to come back until he's visited all of them!

 

[gsarg]

K, nobody wants to get their hands dirty?

In no particular order:

Ron Paul
Charles Krauthammer
Tom Coburn
Paul Ryan
Marco Rubio
Mark Levin
Mark Styne
Tim Pawlenty
Newt Gingrich
Antonin Scalia

 

[rhodesbe]

My list would not be politicians, as neither were the original founding fathers.

D'Nesh D'Souza
Neil DeGrasse Tyson
James Wesley, Rawles
Elon Musk
Jon Stossel
Jack Roush
Bill Gates
Juan Pritzker
Levy Johansson
Steve Blithe
