the Declaration of Independence in 1776 became the defining event in Thomas Jefferson's life. Despite Jefferson's desire to return to Virginia to help write that state's constitution, the Continental Congress appointed him to the five-person committee for drafting a declaration of independence.

Answer:

He had a way with his words.

Step-by-step explanation:

He was the best at getting the country allies, He spoke French and was as well the ambassador to France during the Revolutionary War. He knew the ways of the system and wrote Declarations for The US and as well as France.
