When one takes a look at the world in which he currently lives, he sees it as being normal since it is so slow in changing. When an historian looks at the present, he sees the effects of many events and many profound people. Benjamin Franklin is one of these people. His participation in so many different fields changed the world immensely. He was a noted politician as well as respected scholar. He was an important inventor and scientist in the American history. Particularly interesting is his impact on the scientific world. Benjamin Franklin was a modest man who had had many jobs during his lifetime. This may help explain his large array of inventions and new methods of working various jobs. He did everything from making cabbage-growing more efficient to making political decisions to being the first person to study and chart the Gulf Stream movement in the Atlantic Ocean. This can explain why many people, including myself, saw him as a universal man.

The definition of a universal man is one who knows a little on every topic. If this were so, Ben Franklin would fit the description as one. He knew an enormous amount of politics. Which would explain why each colony wanted him to represent them in their convention? In 1750, Ben Franklin was elected to the Pennsylvania Assembly, in which he served until 1764. After that, he had been postmaster general, a delegate from Pennsylvania to the intercolonial congress, and even went to France for their help in wars. In 1766 he was sent before the House of Commons regarding the Stamp Act, Ben was thought to be behind the idea.
