Locke.
This evidenced by the elevation of the legislative above man, a condition which was established in England on the heels of (and as a result of) the Stuart monarchy.

For Hobbes, the soverign would be primary (man above law). This condition is rarely seen in liberal democratic republics, thus...Locke wins out.
