He was the law teacher for Jefferson, Monroe and a lot of other major Virginians. Forgot if he taught Henry Clay too. His death is kind of interesting. Was also way more progressive-minded than most people of his day. 

Interesting. I didn't know a whole lot about him, but he is a fascinating individual for his time.

@vcczar I'm still locked from editing that row on some player sheets.  Can you do the following?

On player sheets that don't already have it, can you add a column to the left of "Pop" (Column R).  Name the new Column "RW Pop" and rename the original Pop column "LW Pop."  

Once you do that, I can fix any issues where data is aligned wrong easily with the press of a button.  I can also create the automated counter system so we know how many cards of each ideology everyone has.

Ok, I added the new column. Should have LW Pop and RW Pop on all the tabs.

Francis Hopkinson.

Like Franklin and Jefferson, he was a polymath. A genius at almost everything he did. For whatever, reason the US has several Renaissance men born before the US Constitution. We don't get a single one born after the US Constitution, although Theodore Roosevelt might come closest. One could make the case that he was the last, belated one.

@jvikings1 is up.

I don't think that's true. Sure, we haven't gotten polymathmatical politicians since the early days of the republic, but I would argue people like Buckminster Fuller, George Washington Carver, W. E. B. Du Bois, and George Antheil could be classified as Post-Revolution American Polymaths. There are a few more, I'm sure, but those are the ones that came to my mind first.

I mean of federal-level politicians. That is ones that served in elected or appointed federal office. I can't think of any off the top of my head other than T Roosevelt in the 20th century. I'm sure there are some if you look at local offices, which are often more casual.
