Franklin is on the US $100 because of his many contributions to the formation of the country. He was one of the Founding Fathers, a primary author of the Constitution, a diplomat, inventor, scientist, author, philosopher, musician, and postmaster, just to name a few of the incredible number of things he accomplished.
put on the hundred dollar bill
because Ben Franklin was one
of the head colonist before the
American revolution and was
appointed to represent the colony
of Pennsylvania. He was a major
influence on one of the wealthiest
countries of his time, France. Ben
Franklin took it upon himself to
presued the French ruler (King
Louis) and got him to fund the
American revolution after hearing
of the American battle won in
Saratoga. He used to wear his
Raccoon made hats to several
parties in which would turn out to
be the reason why the French would
fun our war effort. Makes Sense...he
supplied money for us to be able to
have "the dollar" so why not put him on the 100$ Bill
