When Abraham Lincoln is listed as more influential than any of the Framers, there's something wrong with the list. Or the author has an agenda.
Well Goodwin did help
Or you have an agenda.
I think the reasoning may be that there are several founders -- Washington, Jefferson, Adams, Hamilton -- and votes split between them, while Lincoln is clearly the most important figure in 19th century America.
For whatever it's worth, I would put Washington above Lincoln. The founding and the Constitution were more important than what came after, but it's at least arguable that the great change in our history came in the 19th, rather than the 18th century.
