Franklin was the first president of a self created college known as the academy and college of Philadelphia in 1751 he was also very popular with the French and developed positive Franco-American relations.
As the Revolution approached political strife slowly tore his network apart.[38]
We still see political satire even till this day, everywhere on social media, on the news, in day to day life. In its own sense political satire can be seen even as political propaganda.
Franklin was an avid chess player. He was playing chess by around 1733, making him the first chess player known by name in the American colonies.
Chess is a fantastic past time, I used to play with my grandfather, however I no longer see him anymore.

"The history of all hitherto existing society is the history of class struggles"

Marx associated with other exiled socialists from across Europe
Being a socialist is hard especially being a Marxist/Socialist after the cold war of today. It was extremely hard for Marx and other socialist back in his time to publish their but for Marxists and socialists of our time it isn't so hard but we do experience hatred and government surveillance.

When it comes to this statement this leads into the other person I look up too, Vladimir Lenin. A very important Marxist to the political world.

Very important point due to the fact that this is a huge factor when it comes to my personal views with Marx. This builds the character that I learned to follow
