Clearly Hamilton is the most popular now. That has a lot to do with his West Indian birth. His support for a larger federal government also has something to do with it. So does the fact that he wasn’t a plantation owner.
Benjamin Rush and Gouverneur Morris have also attracted attention in recent years. Not because they were “typical” Founders, but because they were not typical. Roger Sherman or Charles Carroll (the only Catholic) might be another possibility, but most of the “typical” founders have been as forgotten as Button Gwinnett, whose name is remembered only because his autograph is so rare.
Hamilton also served as a military officer and a brave one.
