“Jefferson wrote none of the Constitution. He was the ambassador to France at the time.”

No one person wrote the constitution.

Jefferson did have considerable influence with the authors.

Jefferson had as much influence as three-masted ships would allow -- round trip.

It took three months to communicate round trip to France. It took three months after it was signed before a copy reached Jefferson.
