No one invented electricity. However if you are asking who discovered and proved electricity, this would be Benjamin Franklin.

We have day light savings because Benjiman Franklin said to.

Benjamin Franklin didn't really fight in many battles during the war. However, without Benjamin Franklin, our freedom from Britain may have never existed. Benjamin Franklin helped create and maintain an alliance with France that was critical in winning the Revolutionary War. The French went on to assist the Americans in many battles, including the Battle of Yorktown, where their navy blocked off Chesapeake bay, making it possible for the Americans to win the battle.

Approx $75.00 to $150.00 depending on condition, with original box, etc. It's actually a "Benjamin" air pistol, the Benjamin Franklin stamped on the side was just a playful play on words by the company.

Yes. He printed many things, particularly his newspaper.

Benjamin Franklin made many discoveries and invented many useful things in his life. However, he did not invent the television. The television didn't come along until 1927-- 137 years after Franklin died.

He didn't actually *write* any of it. The development of the rules and governmental structure specified in the constitution was the work of the convention as a whole and then the final wording was turned over to a committee of style. Franklin's most significant contribution was the Great Compromise. There was a significant divide between the more populous states who wanted representation in congress to be based on population and the smaller states who wanted equal representation. The disagreement seemed insoluble and the convention was in danger of breking up over the issue. Franklin proposed that the House of Representatives have proportional representation and the Senate have equal representation. this compromise was excepted and the rest, as they say, is history.

he didnt...duhh Although he helped come up with the U.S. system of governemnt as outlined in the Constitution, he did not actually write any of the document.

He didn't go to high school for 2 reasons. High schools didn't exist in the 1700's and he was only in school until he was 7 or 8 years old when his father pulled him out. His father put him in an apprenticeship with a candle maker and then later with his brother as a printer.

No. He was pulled out of school by his father, sent to work for his brother, travelled to Pennsylvania, and I think you know what happened from there. He was a Founding Father, but never in the military.

Considering he was one of the delegates (probably the senior delegate since he was 81 at the time of the Constitutional Convention 1787), he was extremely supportive. He spoke and wrote to both the his fellow delegates and the public to support the new governing document meant to replace the dysfunctional Articles of Confederation.

There are multiple authoritative books on Franklin, his life and career. There are also many well researched academic volumes on the Constitutional Convention, its delegates and the ratification process. Check with your local Librarian for further information.

Benjamin Franklin wrote his own autobiography which included his journey to Philadelphia. He's actually interrupted during the writing of his life story by the Revolutionary War. In Philadelphia, he set up a library with his friends.

Benjamin Franklin did many things, including; -inventing numerous things (most famously bifocals, the lightning rod, and the Franklin stove) -serving as the colonies' ambassador to France and man to get an alliance between the two -writing Poor Richard's Almanac and his autobiography -creating of the Pennsylvania Gazette -being a founding father: laying out the 3 branches of government, serving on the Continental Congress, etc -being a genius Long story short: He was amazing! He contributed written work, inventions, political ideals and notions, and a set of fine values. He saved many lives with his lightning rod. == ==
Ben was 1. Writer 2. Editor of the declaration/ signed the declaration 3. Inventor of Franklin stove, bifocals, lightening rods 4. Diplomat 5. At the constitutional convention 6. Began schools 7. Started the first fire department in Philadelphia 8. Opened the Philadelphia library 9. Left a bank account for Philadelphia that couldn't be opened until 1999.

Essentially, he choked on his own vomit. He started coughing on phlegm and never cleared it out, thus causing his death. That and he was 84.

1728 he started up the first printing press

Ben Franklin was fat because as one of the founding fathers, he could intake as much quaker oatmeal bars and five hour energies as he wished. Hope this helps:) I'm a 13 year old gay kid trying to make it into the rap industry, please subscribe.

Franklin was a prodigious inventor. Among his many creations were the lightning rod, the glass harmonica, the Franklin stove, bifocal glasses, and the flexible urinary catheter. Franklin never patented his inventions; in his autobiography he wrote, "... as we enjoy great advantages from the inventions of others, we should be glad of an opportunity to serve others by any invention of ours; and this we should do freely and generously."His inventions also included social innovations, such as paying forward. Franklin's fascination with innovation could be viewed as altruistic; he wrote that his scientific works were to be used for increasing efficiency and human improvement. One such improvement was his effort to expedite news services through his printing presses. Courtesy: Wikipedia

From what I understand he was not very tall and tended to be on the heavy side. In his later years he suffered from gout, and he did like to drink and eat rich foods. The man knew how to party.
