Only one of the first tier founding fathers was foreign-born - Alexander Hamilton, who was born in the Caribbean.

He was also a bastard (literally) and a supporter of monarchy. Because of his background he did everything possible to ingratiate himself with the rich and powerful, and the "royal". The "Whiskey Rebellion" was largely his fault.

Not a nice man.

Sounds like most of what we have in WAshington, doesn't it?
