but over the weekend of November 5-7 in Middlebury, Vermont, three dozen people met to discuss and promote--seriously--the prospect of secession from the United States.

Do you think there were thousands involved when the colonists first talked about independence?

Wow, three dozen people. What a powerful political movement.

So how many founding fathers were there? How many gathered in the room the first time, and said "let's have a discussion about independence from King George"? The other King George.
