Some would say so, but it was a social contract that did not lay out any actual laws, like the US Constitution does.
the mayflower was a contibutuion to the american revolition because of the fact that during the time that it happend the mayflower was letting the people have more say so in what they wanted and how they wanted it to happend. the people also got a chace to to be able to be open minded about the things that go on around them. so basicly the contribution of the mayflower was that it gave more freedom and a freedom of speach.
