Personally, I think one of the Founding Fathers with the biggest brain was John Adams.

I think John Adams certainly had an intellect that was probably close to being on par with Jefferson and Franklin; however, his ideas did not have the impact of theirs. His son was also a fascinating man whose intellect was seriously underestimated.

I vote for James Madison, the Father of our Constitution. Now that's one outstanding piece of work!
