No. By the time the constitution was in place Franklin was 81 years old ( the oldest man in the convention) and he wasn't well. He had gout ( everyday he was carried in a chair into the convention) and he was popular with people but he couldn't keep a secret and he liked to flirt. He was very much a rascal and involved in some shady dealings in England and France. No one in the convention would have voted for him.
