Doctrine and Covenants 101:80 says God established the U.S. Constitution by "wise men" whom God "raised up unto this very purpose[.]"  Though flawed in some ways, as are we all, the Founding Fathers are among the most inspired and great men who have ever lived.  Host Martin Tanner gives highlights of the lives of seven of the most important and influential Founding Fathers.  He discuses why we should be proud of and honor the United States, not be ashamed of it.  The prophecy or prediction of Joseph Smith that the Constitution would hang by a thread is also discussed.
