LV and tux are two posters I respect a lot because they're not afraid to be wrong, and they say what they believe in no matter who's against them. It's like our founding fathers, they said what they believed in despite it being treason.

Haven't heard either way. If you haven't read/heard about Dempsey's story, you should look into it. Dude is straight up beast!
I'm pretty shocked you have girl problems
Excerpt taken from: The One Third Myth
So what were the actual numbers of those who supported and those who opposed the goals of the Revolution? Unfortunately we dont have a public opinion poll for the era, but we do know that the numbers of people protesting the British Governments activities were great enough to force them to change policies, undertake clearly illegal actions and send an Army to enforce their rule.
The best and most extensive research done into the numbers comes in 2000 from historian Robert Calhoon. Calhoon finds about 20% of white American males could be considered Loyalists, while 45% sided with the Patriots.
I agree. I think this unqualified opinion of Burger's would definitely be a turn-off to most women. Only Burger could turn the 1/3rd Myth regarding popular support of the American Revolution into a 10% Myth.
I think most women of Burger's age are familiar enough with the writings of John Adams to know that he was prone to exaggeration and hyperbole!
Burger, now that you are equipped with that bit of knowledge I expecting to hear word of your pending engagement any time now. Hopefully you can find a woman with a large dowry.
