Yeah, the so called "founding fathers" were awesome for their day but if they had lived today they would've been hated by everyone, because they would've been assholes in our eyes.
Not to mention that they would be appalled by our lifestyles, excessive liberties and government programs. The ideals of the "founding fathers" were much more conservative than anything we have today.
Their wisdom, though, was the fact that they laid an elastic framework in which our country could grow, and in which the liberties of the individual citizen would be protected from the government.
