Irishman '''Edmund Burke''' (1729-1797) was in the British [[parliament]] when the conflict with the American colonies occurred, and he sided with the colonies, making him a hero to many in America.  He is also considered to the world's first political [[conservative]], and many conservatives today praise him for that reason.  His works included "Inquiries into the Sublime and Beautiful" (defending the American colonies and examining how people interpret what they see) and "Reflections on the Revolution in France" (warning that the French Revolution was evil because a few would gain control and abuse their power).
