Alas, I meant for this to be for about the lesser known historical figures, not someone who can be identified by any American instantly. Don't worry m8, I'm not mad, I just didn't specify in my post.

I know, but a lot of people do not know anything about Adams except that he was the 2nd POTUS. They do not realize all the things he did to even get this country started, the personal sacrifices he made for the well being of this country and in some cases the sacrifice he made in the name of Justice. Despite all he did he just sort of faded into history.
