The Puritains. Yes, kicked out of England and came here because nobody else wanted them.
But you have to keep in mind the time scales involved…
1492 - Columbus makes contact in the Carribean.
1620 - Pilgrims come across on the Mayflower.
1630 - Some 20,000 Puritains come across.
1776 - Declaration of Independence.
1787-1788 - Constitution.
