Tom Paine no doubt is the most influential because even Bob Dylan sings about him: ...

    Just then Tom Paine, himself
    Came running from across the field
    Shouting at this lovely girl
    And commanding her to yield

    And as she was letting go her grip
    Up Tom Paine did run
    "I'm sorry, sir", he said to me
    "I'm sorry for what she's done"

Ouch. Dylan: America's tough-but-fair national psychoanalyst.
