The Decleration of Independence does uphold the political principles because with out it or country would still be suffering for the lack of money and freedom because of Europe's greed. For example, imagine the U.S. becoming a country like South Africa.

So my overall arguement stands to show that I support the Decleration of Independence and that it upholds all of Americans political values.
