Jefferson. There will never be a better, clearer, brighter mind than his.

Washington, he never gave up, nor shirked his duty. Jefferson would likely be a tie, but we had to pick one.

George Washington. Never would have done it without him. And he was the guy who set the precedent of stepping down from office.

John Adams.

He was obnoxious and disliked, and he never got a monument (or a dinner)!

George Washington is a man I hold in very high esteem. His personal character was really superlative. Courageous, bright, decisive, a leader of men - yet TRULY humble, such a rare quality.

I can’t pick one founding father, but I can pick one set and that set includes Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, John Adams and James Madison.

Luther Martin

I jest, in part, because I haven't read Forgotten Founder, Drunken Prophet, but here's something from the dustjacket:

The Anti-Federalist Luther Martin of Maryland is known to us--if he is known at all--as the wild man of the Constitutional Convention: a verbose, frequently drunken radical who exasperated James Madison, George Washington, Gouverneur Morris, and the other giants responsible for the creation of the Constitution in Philadelphia that summer of 1787. Martin is still something of a fitfully charming reprobate, but he is also a prophetic voice, warning his heedless contemporaries and his amnesiac posterity that the Constitution, whatever its devisers' intentions, would come to be used as a blueprint for centralized government and a militaristic foreign policy.
