The correct answer is: "social contract and popular sovereignty".

The Enlightenment philosophers, such as Locke, Monstequieu or Rosseau, introduced ideas that challenged, and ended up derrocating, the power structures of the Old Regime. They promoted reason and the scientific method over religious dogmatism and superstititions.

The main principles developed were the following: definition of bills of citizens' rights, social contract (citizens electing political representatives to create goverments through suffrage, in opposition to the prevailing absolute monarchies), and the division of the powers of the state in order to avoid excessive power accumulation in certain sectors, and risks of authoritarism.

One way in which President Andrew Johnson and President Bill Clinton are similar is that both were 4. acquitted by the Senate after being impeached. Andrew Johnson was impeached after removing his Secretary of War from office, breaking a law which stated the President could not remove Secretaries from the Cabinet without Congressional approval. Bill Clinton was impeached after it was discovered he lied under oath; when asked if he had had intimate relations with a White House aide, Monica Lewinsky, he stated "no," but then it was discovered that was false. However, both remained President because neither were found guilty by the Senate.
