Which is older - Harvard or the United States?

When was 

Harvard founded?

The university, first in

the colonies, was founded

October 28, 1636.

Only after the drafting,

signing and ratification

of the U.S. Constitution

can people agree that the

United States was "founded"

in 1787.  Its first President,

George Washington, and first

Vice President John Adams

would take office along with

the First CONGRESS and

the First Supreme Court

in 1788 (Presidents serve only

4-year terms, are re-elected

only once*).
