What happen in the dinner of Thomas Jefferson in 1790?
In 1790, there were 2 large issues that were issues that the entire Congress was worked up about. The first was the location of the capital. Since New York wasn't a great place to put it, and everyone knew, new sites for the capital were proposed - Trenton, Philadelphia, and a site that Thomas Jefferson and James Madison liked on the Potomac River. The second was Alexander Hamilton (the thirty-four year old Secretary of the Treasury) and his Report on Public Credit. He argued that the government needed to assume 25 million dollars of debt in addition to its own 54 million. James Madison, easily the most influential delegate in the House, vehemently opposed. Jefferson, knowing that Hamilton wielded influence with Washington, invited both he and Madison to dinner. Hamilton agreed to convince skeptics to put the temp capital in Philadelphia and the permanent on the Potomac, as Jefferson and Madison wanted, in exchange for support of his assumption plan by Madison and Jefferson (Madison actually said that he would not actively oppose it, but he wasn't going to vote for it). History still remembers this deal for a few reasons. First of all, it was the only time that Hamilton and Jefferson, who hated each other, would work together. Secondly, the site of the nations capital, in what was then the centre of the country, would effectively unite the country because Virginia was in the country's center and was a border state (there is a reason the 6 of the first 10 presidents were from Virginia). Thirdly, Hamilton's Report on Public Credit, passed with assumption and all, and the subsequent Reports would shape our country's economic system and give the United States good credit and a working economy.

There were 55 who attended the convention. Some are better known than others, like Hamilton, Washington, and Madison. The National Archives site linked to the right has a listing by state of all the Founding Fathers and a biography of each. Some would say that the four most significant Founding Fathers are George Washington, Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Jefferson and James Madison. This could easily be contested based on your evaluation of the contributions of each man. Others such as Alexander Hamilton and John Adams would be high on any list.---------------(2) Our Founding of the American Revolution came in two phases: the war & the peace. Of the Founding Fathers only Washington and Hamilton fought, both for over 4 years. Then came the revolution of a government system and an economic/financial system. Washington presided and often had to choose between conflicting options and he chose well. Madison, Hamilton, and Jay on Government Systems. Alexander Hamilton alone on Economic/Financial Systems. Therefore, Washington (1), Hamilton (2), Madison (3), and Jay (4). Jefferson, Adams, and Franklin played key roles in their states and were diplomats but they did not fight in the war for independence or create the national foundations.
