I missed nothing. I understand fully what the article said; but I was offering refutation to the MARXIST posts, which were admittedly off topic.

We , as a nation, have been governed by " elites ", of one form or another. The FFs were no exception. Washington was " annointed "; to use mercy's terminology.

Jefferson was a hypocrite , a wasterl, and personally irresponsible.

Burr was Clintonian .

Franklin was a womanizer , as well as having other not so nice traits and habits.

That's just for starters. It's an unnecessary waste of bandwidth, to continue ... but fact is prefferable to myth.

You offered refutation, buy you didn't refute anything.

I do understand though, that anybody who doesn't agree with you, is a MARXIST.
