Who were the leading "Founding Fathers" of the United States? What kind of men were they? What vital roles did they play in the framing of the important state papers of America — the Declaration of Independence, the Articles of Confederation and the U.S. Constitution? America has three great state documents which were written by the Founding Fathers during and shortly after the early struggles of this nation in the Revolutionary War period. Those valuable state papers are: The Declaration of Independence (1776), The Articles of Confederation (1781),and The Constitution of the United States (1787). The Articles of Confederation (America's first Constitution) now has no validity, having been superseded by the present Constitution. - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
