John Dickinson

    John Dickinson bol mimoriadne vplyvnou politickou postavou v období zakladania Spojených štátov. Jeho neochvejný odpor voči nezávislosti na Veľkej Británii možno zatienil jeho význam v porovnaní s inými otcami zakladateľmi, napriek tomu jeho príspevky nemožno ignorovať. Dickinson zohral kľúčovú úlohu pri formovaní raných amerických politických dokumentov, vrátane návrhu Rezolúcií Stamp Act Congress a esejí "Listy pensylvánskeho farmára", ktoré ostro kritizovali britskú politiku. Jeho úsilie o zmier s Veľkou Britániou ho síce oddelilo od podpisu Deklarácie nezávislosti, ale jeho neskoršia účasť na Ústavnom konvente a podpora novej ústavy svedčia o jeho trvalom odhodlaní slúžiť novému národu.
