M: I would like you to go online and build a list of the Founding Fathers. That part's easy, but I need you to build and lock in a list of the Founding Fathers. And then once you've done that, I'm going to ask you to go online and summarize, through what's available online, their opinion on the results of the Constitution. For the guys who remain constant, just a, you know, single brief but comprehensive summary. And for the guys who are, who like maybe developed a preference as they saw how things were turning out, or developed an opinion, a more biographical version, but in the same way of trying to be brief but comprehensive. Don't start with those, though, first lock in a list of the signers of the Constitution, or members of the Constitutional Congress, that you can use to reference as we move along. Because I know that asking you for the entire thing at once will end up causing some sort of strain, or drift, or something.

Third option: If you meant “Founding Fathers” more broadly

The phrase can mean a bigger set (e.g., Declaration signers, early presidents, major pamphleteers, etc.). For your next step (“their opinion on how the Constitution turned out”), this 1787 delegate list is the cleanest starting boundary—but if you want, we can later expand outward in controlled rings.
