This probably needs to be disambiguated from the Founders of Gallifrey, also called the "Founding Fathers". I suggest Founding Fathers of the United States or Founding Fathers (United States).
Talk about it here.
- You may be looking for Founders of Gallifrey.
The Founding Fathers were the founders of the United States of America who wrote the Constitution of the United States. Among the Founding Fathers were Thomas Jefferson, John Adams and Alexander Hamilton. The Eleventh Doctor said that they were "lovely fellows" and claimed that two of them "fancied" him. (TV: The Impossible Astronaut)
Rapist and murderer Oswald Danes used the Fifth and Eighth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States to explain why he could not be re-executed after the State of Kentucky's first attempt failed on Miracle Day. He claimed that the Fifth Amendment's guarantee that ". . . nor shall any person be subject for the same offense twice", in concert with the Eighth Amendment's protection against "cruel or unusual punishment" offered him a superior legal position. He proclaimed that the "Founding Fathers practically had [him] in mind when they wrote the Constitution." (TV: The New World)
