http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Heighton\n\n"The Banner of Equal Rights" was the banner of the city democrats of Philadelphia in 1828. William Heighton was a common shoemaker who became the leader of the Philadelphia Working Man's Party.\n\nThe Panic of 1819 accelerated the process of subdividing manufacturing and increasing industrialization. Unskilled workers filled the factories, pushing skilled workers away and bringing longer hours and smaller wages to all. William Heighton organized the skilled journeyman into the Mechanics Union of Trade Associations (MUTA). This was the first citywide organization of journeymen in America. MUTA successfully used strikes to improve wages and hours for journeymen. This organization greatly improved worker influence and rights for skilled workers. However, Heighton's organization did not help, in fact purposefully hurt, women, children, blacks, and unskilled workers, who were viewed as a threat to journeymen.\n\nHeighton was the portrait of a self-made man. He was an English immigrant who became a wage-working shoemaker, who later became a leader of men, and a celebrity throughout taverns and commoners. Heighton was greatly influenced by John Gray.

Er... I'm honestly not quite sure what you're going for here.\n\nThe first person who comes to mind as fitting your description is George Washington, who was invited to become king of America and refused in favor of a democratic system.  He also volunteered to leave after two terms as President, setting a precedent that was upheld until FDR's administration and was later ratified as a Constitutional amendment.

John Hancock was one of the leading men that spurred on the American Revolution. I looked at a couple of links, but the one below is short and concise and speaks directly with details regarding most of his patriotic activities (if you can get a copy of his speech after the Boston Massacre - that is what really brought him to the attention of the public at-large).
