Abraham Lincoln was not one of the founding fathers, and that pamphlet you presented kinda coicides with the period when the media started going downhill.

I heard that Adamd and Jefferson had issues, but I must admit that I have no knowledge of what went down between them.

Regarding your last paragraph, that could actually be considered slander (or even harassment).

Thomas Jefferson was accused of being black, having an affair with a black woman (granted true, but they probably didn't know that), lots of stuff like that.

John Adams was accused of wanting to set up a dictatorship.

All kinds of more stuff like that.  Politics have always been like that.
