Is this history or English class???

Our tenth grade literature is very heavily influenced by historical events, people, and places.  We're in my favorite unit now:  "The Founding Fathers".  I'm excited to be able to combine my love of reading and history.  Ben Franklin is probably my favorite because he did so many things:  inventor, author, journalist, scientist...the list goes on.  Our country would be very different if he had never lived.  I really want to travel to Philadelphia to see his grave and learn more about him firsthand. Who is your favorite "founding father" and why?
