"It was Thomas Paine's pen,
through his pamphlet Common Sense, which motivated thousands of colonists to join the rebel army to fight for the cause of liberty against their British Cousins. In a nation of three million, more than 500,000 copies of the 40-page pamphlet were printed. That would be the modern day equivalent today of about half of all voters watching the same 30-minute documentary calling on them to overthrow their government -- and most of them supporting the idea."

THOMAS Paine
(February 9, 1737 – June 8, 1809) was an author, pamphleteer,
radical, inventor, intellectual, revolutionary, and one of the
Founding Fathers of the United States. Born in Thetford, Norfolk,
Paine emigrated to the British American colonies in 1774 in time to
participate in the American Revolution. His principal contributions
were the powerful, widely read pamphlet Common Sense (1776),
advocating colonial America's independence from the Kingdom of Great
Britain, and The American Crisis (1776–1783), a pro-revolutionary
pamphlet series.
The historian Saul K.
Padover in the biography Jefferson: A Great American's Life and
Ideas, refers to Paine as "a corsetmaker by trade, a journalist by
profession, and a propagandist by inclination."
