Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Thomas Jefferson.

He was thought to have the best understanding of political grammar of any of those who ultimately signed the constitution. John Adams, Ben Franklin, Jefferson, and Sherman were on a committee that drafted the Letter and then the entire body argued what should stay and what needed to go. Jefferson did not take responsibility for writing the declaration till much later in his life.
