Editor, The Washington Monthly What strikes me is how many people are alternately underrated and overrated as intellectual fashion changes. Truman, Elsenhower, Wilson, and Theodore Roosevelt are examples. I think the most underrated in history is George Mason, the real father of the First Amendment. The most underrated in recent years is Chester Bowles.
