I’ve always lamented how unsung John Adams is as one of our most important founding fathers. Thank you for recognizing Adams’s contribution and I would love to see him replace Grant on the 50.

What a wonderful epitaph for a truly deserving man who was grossly ill treated in his time . I admire your choice. Michelle

Ben Franklin was an AMAZING Man.

Ben was a Printer, Scientist, Experimenter, Inventor, Composer, Musician, Politician, Ambassador, Philanthropist, Architect, Author…. even with all this he still had time to chase skirts and he loved to imbibe a little from time to time.

I reckon todays politicians are lacking in either talent or intelligence. Not one on capital hill or Pennsylvania Ave can claim even half of Franklin’s resume’.

When he was Vice President and not having a good time, he told his wife Abigail, “My country has in its wisdom contrived for me the most insignificant office that ever the invention of man contrived or his imagination conceived.”

Haha, still pretty much true today.

His blog last year: http://www.mikeroweworks.com/2009/07/wisdom-from-the-founding-fathers/

And so do I. Let’s start a Replace Grant with Adams Facebook campaign!

I’m currently buried in the middle of McCullough’s Pulitzer Prize Winner and couldn’t agree more about Adams. Not an opinion I would have shared previously to reading this amazing book. McCullough writes as if he were Adam’s lifelong friend. He had to have been one of the hardest working “Founding Fathers” we had.
