Talk:Founding Fathers of the United States/Draft RFC 4B
RFC on Continental Association and Articles of Confederation edit
{{rfc|hist|pol}} Should the signers of the Continental Association or the Articles of Confederation be listed in this article and in their biographies as Founding Fathers of the United States because of their action in signing the Continental Association or the Articles of Confederation?
This question only affects those individuals who signed the Continental Association or the Articles of Confederation and did not sign either the American Declaration of Independence or the Constitution of the United States. Individuals who signed either of the latter two documents will continue to be listed as Founding Fathers.
There are two parts to this RFC, one having to do with the Continental Association and one having to with the Articles of Confederation. Please answer the Survey for each question with A, B, or C, and a brief statement. Please do not respond to other posts in the Survey; that is what the Discussion is for.
