Best Answer

thomas Paine was Thomas Jefferson best friend? Possibly... HOWEVER. Thomas Paine was for the idea of independence. Although he did not sign the declaration, he published a 50-page pamphlet on January in the year 1776 about the support for independence. He gives political, military, and moral arguements for breaking away from Britain. In other words, he gives examples of wide variety for breaking away from Britain and become independent.
