I don't know if he was from Liverpool, but Thomas Paine was very influential in those days. He was very good friends with Benjamin Franklin so it is very possible. He was in favour of American independence and the French revolution. This made hi very unpopular in his own country.

I read that he was the person eho suggested the name of the United States of America.

It's very possible. There were more than 50 people that signed the U.S. Declaration of Independence. That declaration was to declare independence from Britain. People that came here to live mostly came from Britain and Europe altogether so it wouldn't be out of the norm for somebody born in England to have signed the Declaration of Independence.

nicely, legally, the announcement has no longer status; the foudation for our u . s . became into set out in the form. And, the announcement wasn't signed on 7/4/1776, yet over a quantity of time after that (it became into ratified via the Continental Congress on that day). The seeds of democracy have been before. The Black Panthers rewrote the announcement, in the 60s, to make a factor concerning to the racial inequality of this u . s .. So it did have a place in that circulate. i've got self assurance feminists used it, too, to make that elementary factor. on the founding of the rustic, neither women nor human beings of coloration have been seen between the "men" that have been "created equivalent". And, of direction, there is that pesky bit approximately somebody having "created" us all. BTW, Jefferson did a sprint bit photocopying and a sprint bit modifying. in case you study John Locke (from whom the suggestions underlying the announcement have been lifted), you will see the word "life, liberty, and the pursuit of property" favourite.
