Personally, I think one of the Founding Fathers with the biggest brain was John Adams. I vote for James Madison, the Father of our Constitution. Now that's one outstanding piece of work!

Amazingly enough, virtually everythinbg in our Constitution can be found or foreshadowed in the greatest legal work in Anglo-American history--Blackstone's commentaries on the common law (1760s). Even the 2nd amendment is there--right to bear arms for personal defense AND defense against tyranny.
