No he didn't. John Hancock signed the Declaration of Independence. John Hancock refused to sign the US Constitution at that time because he felt that it lacked in certain areas and needed to be relooked. According to Dr. William Morgan Fowler of Northeastern University, Boston says the reason John Hancock rejected the US Constitution was that "Hancock, who was not present at the Philadelphia Convention, had misgivings about the new Constitution's lack of a Bill of Rights and its shift of power to a central government." But he later joined Samuel Adams to lead the effort in a compromise through which Massachusets approved ratification but with many substantial amendments recommended.
Yes, even though he was an anti-federalist and others who were anti-federalists did not. If you look by the state of New Hampshire you will for sure see his signature!

I believe that Ben Franklin discovered electricity in June 1752 in Philadelphia. Some people believe that the Greeks found out when there was the first electrical storm and it made fire but I believe Ben Franklin did and told us all.
Ben Foster was born in Boston, Massachusetts, US.
There were just two men who held the office of president that were named Franklin. They were Franklin Delano Roosevelt who was the 32nd president and Franklin Pierce who was the 14th.

Benjamin (BEN) Franklin signed 4 important documents for the US. First, he signed the Declaration of Independence in 1776. He then signed the Treaty of Alliance with France in 1778. He then signed the Treaty of Paris in 1783. And lastly, he signed the US Constitution in 1787. Thankyou for reading, I hope this helped.
Roger Sherman from Connecticut; George Clymer, Ben Franklin, Robert Morris and James Wilson from Pennsylvania; and George Read from Delaware.
Yes. Even before the US had written the Constitution France thought of the US as an indepandant country. That might had to do with some of the persausion from Ben Franklin.

When he signed the US Constitution

55 of the 72 delegates who drafted the articles of confederation, or the constitution's predecessor, although only 39 signed, as many of the southern state representatives refuse to sign due to lack of slaveholder rights. Among the signing delegates were George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, Alexander Hamilton and James Madison.
When Ben Franklin walked out of the Independence Hall after the creation of the constitution, someone from the crowd yelled out to him. "Ben, what kind of government did you give us"? His response, "a republic, IF you can keep it". You will also here that term in the pledge of allegiance.
