Question

The Declaration of Independence best reflects Americans strong belief in

rule of law
federalism
social contract
naturalization

Answer 1

I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is the first option. The Declaration of Independence best reflects Americans strong belief in rule of law. The Declaration of Independence is the statement adopted by the Second Continental Congress meeting at the Pennsylvania State House in Philadelphia on July 4, 1776.

Answer 2

The answer best suited here is social contract. Because when King George III ruled over the colonies, he lost the consent of the governed (the American colonists). The Founding Fathers who wrote the Declaration of Independence stated that King George III, broke the social contract; thus violating their rights and interests. As they lived in a new country and did not have legal representation in Parliament in England, nor were they asked, when King George III taxed them heavily and prevented them from their natural born rights.
