The Founders would not have one clue what's going on......after all, they were mostly farmers. Actually, your lack of knowledge about American history continues to show. Almost all had extensive education - many were the early attendees at Harvard. Many were lawyers and physicians, most had attended college. Some were farmers. More than 1/3 of the Framers had had some role in the Revolution. These were not ignorant dirt-workers. You know on second thought, you're right....they were well educated for their time. That means they still wouldn't understand modern finance and how we elected a Tory named Bush to be president. The latter would totally mess them up.
