Did George Washington wrote the constitution?

Answer 1

George Washington played an extremely important role in the framing of the US Constitution, and he probably made some important suggestions for it to others during the recesses of the Constitutional Convention (May to September, 1787). But Washington was the President of the Convention, and he believed it was his job to remain impartial, not favoring any one side in the many arguments that arose during the Convention. Although he did not write the Constitution, he signed it to make it official. Moreover, when the framers were deciding just what the qualifications and powers of the President of the US should be, they seem to have patterned the office after the first person to hold it - George Washington. In fact, neither he nor Benjamin Franklin took direct part in the debates over the elements of the Constitution, but evidence strongly suggests that both men worked very hard behind the scenes to calm the furious tempers which erupted during the summer months of 1787 in Philadelphia, PA. Many of the ideas making up the Constitution were provided by James Madison, the 4th President of the US, and Gouveneur (his actual first name!) Morris of Pennsylvania is credited with providing most of the legal language we find in the document.
