The Purpose Of This Book And Why You Should Read It
The purpose of this book is not to bash, criticize or dishonor the legacy of all these heroic men; nor bring up their sins to light... They were not perfect men by no means because of the simple fact that they were human, but who am I to judge; I don't consider myself better than them. I have asked myself this simple question: what would I have done if I‘d been in their place back in their time? I probably and hopefully would've done the same thing that all these outstanding men did, as far as all that has to do on giving birth to this great nation. Nobody likes to live under the iron fist of totalitarian dictators, ungodly monarchies or corrupt governments. I know, I wouldn't like it; therefore I would like to think that I understand their motivation to get rid of that form of governance. Keep in mind that it was not that simple for all these men to achieve this very ambitious and monumental task, it was something never seen or done before. That's what visionaries do, they observe and accomplish the things that simple minded people dream about, but never accomplish; they put everything on the line in order to accomplish it. I say everything and that means their fortunes, honor, livelihoods, and it didn't stop there; their own lives and the lives of all their families were on the line. Just think about that for a moment, the burning desire to be completely free from total tyranny outweighed the risk of losing absolutely everything that they had, even their own existence and the existence of their families. They pursued their dream and plans with everything within themselves until they achieved it. That's how they gave birth to a nation that came to be known as the greatest nation in the history of mankind. In my personal opinion, there has never been another nation like the U.S.A. I believe that historically, the facts speak for themselves very clearly, all because it was founded based on solid everlasting principles taken directly from The Everlasting Word Of Almighty God. Because of this, it became a beacon of freedom in the world. The shinny light up on top of the hill, the refuge for the persecuted, the earthly promise land for the pilgrims of the world and the land of opportunity for the dreamers.
Therefore, my intention is not to bring any negative attention to their historic work, achievements and success, but acknowledge and accentuate the value in every principle that these men used to found and give birth to this great nation. My prayer is that all of them are resting in peace beside their maker...

The 56 Founding Fathers of The USA - Elpidio Espinoza
Introduction
The subtitle of this book might sound offensive or even heretic to some of you.
Please don't jump to your guns yet, give me the opportunity to make my case to you, keep an open mind as you keep reading. Personally, I don't have any issues with the founding fathers of this nation and the framers of the Declaration of Independence or the Constitution for that matter. All I have for all these great men is respect and admiration.

The Contrast Between Them And Us
Contrary to what you might think, after saying all these things if you don't agree with me; it's alright, I just want to make a contrast between them and the way they used to think and our current society and the way we think now; there's a significant difference. For instance, for them it was not a crime to be immigrants or settlers, in many instances they adopted the nickname of The Immigrant
because that's what they were and they knew it! So, what changed? Why are so many people way too hostile towards immigrants now? My contention is that all this confusion is the result of not knowing the history and beginnings of this nation! It used to be different before the 19th century. These groups of people or individuals use to be called foreigners, strangers, pilgrims or immigrants. For them it wasn't a crime to look for better opportunities in what they would consider their promised land. In many cases, citizens of other nations would be very friendly, not all the time, but most of the time they were. Nations that were not friendly to these groups of people or individuals would be considered barbarians, extremists, and violent. I'm not saying that this nation should have open borders, what I'm saying is, let's be honest about the way we debate this issue today. We are a very compassionate people for the most part; let's not stop being like that now. We are a very caring people, mainly because our faith informs us of that. Please let's not stop doing that now either. I believe that we the people need to find a common solution to this problem without further unnecessary divisions that are not helping the nation. Believe me when I tell you that the intent of the framers and fathers, as I understand it, was not to create a nation where only the few would rule and reign like dictators from totalitarian states. In the beginning, the central idea was for all people from all walks of life, religions, races, beliefs, nationalities and status to have the opportunity to pursue their happiness and dreams to the best of their own abilities, and succeed above and beyond their God given talents and gifts. You have to keep in mind that the ancestors of all these fine men fled their own homelands precisely because they didn't have this freedom, or any kind of freedom for that matter, compared to the freedoms that have characterized this nation. This nation was founded with that belief and idea at the center of it all. I'm convinced that the last thing on their minds was the current situation that we have now in the country. Just take a look around and if you understand the history of the nation just a little bit you
