The answers will probably not surprise you. And this list was considerably easier to come up with than the “Worst Figures” list that gave a handful of bloggers the vapors. For the “worst” list, I had a hard time coming up with eleven names. For this list, I had a hard time stopping at twenty. FWIW, my picks were -
- John Adams
- Abigail Adams
- Susan B. Anthony
- Ronald Reagan
- George Washington
- Abraham Lincoln
- Thomas Jefferson
- George Washington Carver
- Frederick Douglass
- Thomas Edison
- Alexander Graham Bell
- Benjamin Franklin
- Daniel Webster
- Clara Barton
- Sam Houston
- Patrick Henry
- Booker T. Washington
- Thomas Paine
- Orville and Wilbur Wright
- Noah Webster

What! No famous Christians! I put William Lane Craig and Lee Strobel, at least. I like the debating guys.

I have a hard time figuring out why people like Abraham Lincoln so much.
Davy Crockett would be a far better choice, and maybe James K. Polk and President McKinley.
