About this product

Product Information

Yet how much do you really know about the Founding Fathers? And how much of what you "know" is actually myth perpetuated by leftist history professors who dismiss the Founders as wealthy, racist, sexist, dead-white-males whose principles deserve to be as dead as they are? In The Politically Incorrect Guide to the Founding Fathers, Dr. Brion McClanahan sets the record straight. He provides a neat summary history of America's founding documents, profiles all the leading Founders (and some unjustly neglected ones), and shows how they have better answers to today's problems than our politicians do.

  • For Those Who Felt The Phrase "Founding Fathers" Was A Bit Too Cultish

    The great -- and more importantly, GOOD -- Dr. Brion McClanahan, in typical Tom Woods fashion, takes down narrative after narrative that grade school youth have been spoon-fed by the new world order about their so-called 'Founding Fathers' (despite many of which not having been actually sired by such long-deceased individuals)! The good doctor debunks the claim that the Framers of the Constertution (of No Authority, as Lysander Spooner would say) were all trying to balance the Rights of both the individual/minority and the collective/majority, and that it's some sort of 'living, breathing document', when, in actuality, it was a boondoggle by men who weaseled Thomas Jefferson out to France with claims that Benjamin Franklin somehow 'needed' him, and only got back in time to put up what little fight he could with James Madison to include the Bill of Rights in the document to spell out what the State CANNOT do as a compromise that, if not fought for or if fought too much for, would've likely resulted in his murder or at least ouster and tyranny that much more, that much sooner! As Benjamin Tucker noted, when the last signer of the document passed away, it was rendered null-and-void. This reviewer certainly never signed anything like that; there is no 'social-contract'! As Anthony de Jasay would go on to write, private property is pre-political, in that, it predates the State, therefore, any definition of the State as being needed to validate contracts debunks itself, because the State was not always around, so, at least two individuals had to come together to contract the State in the first place! General/President George Washington was not entirely peaceful, as the man said to not being capable of telling a lie after chopping down a cherry tree, because he put down the 'Whiskey Rebellion', in a way that was entirely not needed. Many so-called 'Revolutionaries' and 'Founders' and 'Framers' were all too happy to just have a monarchy -- a system that was just rebuked with the lives of their brethren, fathers, uncles, nephews, and sons -- and call him 'King George'! Abraham Lincoln, additionally, was also not so 'honest' and was indeed bought-and-paid for by the railroad tycoons and senators who wanted a railroad stop by their own residences. Abe only beat Jefferson Davis to the punch at 'freeing' the slaves, mainly for shock value, and the latter had a five-year-plan for freeing them! Most abolitionists were based in the south and many Negroids were mistreated in the north, and they were not seen as fit for civilized society by Mr. Lincoln!
