In the 1800's they were one of the major groups involved in the 2nd Great Awakening. They wanted to help the other Americans to become better people then they had been in the past which was also a major part of this religious reform.

Who brought the first Mormons to the us?

Nobody. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) was founded in the US - so the first Mormons were already in the US! :) If you are speaking of the first Mormons to move from another country to the US, rather than the first Mormons ever in the US, the answer is still nobody. The first Mormons to move from another country to the US came from Canada, and were not 'brought' by any specific person, only encouraged to move so that they could be nearer to the main body of the church.

Why is the Gettysburg Address considered the most important speech in history?

While not the "most important speech in history" it is obviously important to US history and may have played some small role in the Union victory over the Confederacy. It raised the morale of the North, which prosecuted the Civil War to its conclusion, restoring the seceded Southern states and ending the toleration of slavery. This had great ramifications for international affairs, including four major wars fought in the following century, in which the "undivided" US played a pivotal role.
