RE: Who did Lincoln admire?
Herndon notwithstanding, I think Lincoln sincerely admired the political philosophy of Thomas Jefferson if not Jefferson's private foibles. As for the other founders I would put Thomas Paine higher than many others.

I want the respect of intelligent men, but I will choose for myself the intelligent. --Carl Sandburg
