I highly doubt that the founding fathers were wowed by the algonquin round table

Especially since they were all dead for about a hundred years or more when the all-white Algonquin Round Table convened in a NYC hotel in the early 1920's.

Harpo Marx was usually there though, so it's likely influenced the script of "Duck Soup."

I referenced the Algonquin round table. I was taught that this was the place of the meeting of iroquois nations.
I have just learned today that it was a movement by literary types that started in the 20’s
