Answer:

False

Explanation:

Thomas Jefferson was chosen to write the declaration of independence because of the following:

1. He was voted to do it among the committee of five, which includes the likes of John Adams and Benjamin Franklin

2. He was seen as someone who can write good or creative literature material, unlike John Adams who was believed to have a more formal writing style

This is evident in John Adams's conclusions in which he said among other things while referring to Thomas Jefferson "You can write ten times better than I can.”

Jefferson was also one of the youngest on the committee. He was aged 33 then, while Benjamin Franklin was the oldest among them.
