The truth about the Founding Fathers you don't know about

While we know several of the more famous Founding Fathers (a term which wasn't even applied to them until the 20th century) like George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Alexander Hamilton, and Benjamin Franklin, there were plenty of others. A whole lot more, actually. Over 50 people signed the Declaration of Independence, and those weren't necessarily the same people who signed other documents like the Constitution or Articles of Confederation.

Basically, it seems anybody involved with politics at the founding of the United States was invited to sign the country's framing documents, and lots of people took the offer. While we might think of the Founding Fathers as good, honest, philosophical men, that wasn't necessarily true for all of them.

Just like any group of mismatched people, some of them were a little weird, some of them were even outright criminals, and some were not people you'd invite over for dinner, under any circumstance.
