Key Points

The British policy of salutary neglect, which unofficially condoned self-government of the colonies, fueled the movement for independence. During the Revolutionary War, Patriots sought to gain formal acknowledgment of this policy through independence.

The Patriot rebellion was based on the political philosophy of republicanism, which entailed a rejection of monarchy and aristocracy and an emphasis on civic virtue.

Early Patriots alienated some by resorting to violence against tax collectors and pressuring others to declare a position in the conflict. Though not all colonists supported violent rebellion, historians estimate that as many as 45 percent of colonists supported the Patriots’ cause.

The Founding Fathers and architects of the Constitution were early Patriot leaders and included Patrick Henry, Samuel Adams, Thomas Jefferson, Alexander Hamilton, John Adams, Benjamin Franklin, John Jay, and George Washington.

Prior to 1775, many of these Patriots were active in the Sons of Liberty, an organization formed to protect the rights of the colonists from usurpation by the British government. They are best known for initiating the Boston Tea Party in 1773.
