“George Mason is the most important Founding Father that you’ve never heard of.  You’ve never heard of him because he gets into a fight with the one person you don’t want to get into a fight with if you want to go down in history and that is; George Mason gets into a fight with George Washington.”



If you have never heard of George Mason, don’t feel too bad, most people have not, but we guarantee that you’ve heard of several of his most famous works.  Mason was an extremely influential Founding Father that does not get enough play and we wanted to tell you all about him and his memorial.  Join us as we discuss a forgotten Founder, his memorial and which very famous Founder he publicly feuds with.
