Being a US diplomat.

Franklin served as the American envoy (ambassador) to France, helping secure French support in the Revolutionary War and negotiating the 1783 Treaty of Paris. He did not become president or draft the Emancipation Proclamation; Thomas Jefferson was the principal author of the Declaration of Independence (Franklin was a committee member and signer).
