A. All government power comes from the people.

Popular for this term is referring to the populous or people of a group and sovereignty means holding the political power.

Popular sovereignty refers to the right of the people to vote for political issues. If a government is run by popular sovereignty then the government answers to the vote of the people. A democracy would be an example of country organized around the concept of popular sovereignty.

A is the correct answer! Popular = the people, the populous. Sovereignty = rule. So, the people rule! This is usually done through voting.
