Best Answer

He was the colonies' ambassador to France and convinced the French government to fight alongside the Americans against the British. He published pro-American books and a newspaper. He served on the Continental Congress. He was instrumental in the planning of our system of government. He was one of the Founding Fathers and one of the American representatives signing the Treaty of Versailles. He was respected by everyone and his huge decision to support the colonies in the pursuit of independence was incredible.
