Since you didn't list statement options, allow me simply to offer some summary about the concept of popular sovereignty in the Declaration of Independence.
"Popular sovereignty" means the people are in charge of establishing a government over themselves. The founding fathers of the United States adopted the idea of popular sovereignty from Enlightenment philosophers like John Locke (of England) and Jean-Jacques Rousseau (of France).
The Declaration of Independence (1776), written primarily by Thomas Jefferson, asserted the concept of popular sovereignty. The Declaration insisted that people institute governments in order to secure their rights, and that governments get their authority from the consent of the governed. "Whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends," the Declaration of Independence said, "it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness."
Answer:
Yes, it is very important. Peaceful transition of power has been a tradition in the United States since the first President, George Washington, who had so much influence and power, that could have easily become a dictator, decided to step out and transfer the presidential power to his successor.
Peaceful transition of power is a pillar of U.S. Democracy because it is perhaps the most important tradition that defines democracy in the U.S. Without peaceful transition of power, there is not a democracy, but an autocracy.
If you’re talking about the United States, the Soviet Union, China and maybe Japan, the answer would be: Britain, Spain, France and Germany.
