The Preamble quote that most specifically refers to natural rights: "[T]hey are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.”

John Locke was one of the first of the Enlightenment era philosophers.  The Enlightenment's emphasis on reason was in contrast to superstition and traditional beliefs.  The Scientific Revolution had shown that there are natural laws in place in the physical world and in the universe at large.  Applying similar principles to matters like government and society, using reason will guide us to the best ways to operate politically so as to create the most beneficial conditions for society.  This included a conviction that all human beings have certain natural rights which are to be protected and preserved.    Locke's ideal was one that promoted individual freedom and equal rights and opportunity for all.  Each individual's well-being (life, health, liberty, possessions) should be served by the way government and society are arranged.

How did the Treaty of Versailles help pave the way for the Nazi party to gain control of Germany?
rjkz [21]

The Treaty of Versailles helped pave the way for the Nazi party to gain control of Germany by creating resentment and anger among the German people. Many German people were very resentful of their government (the Weimar Government) for having signed the peace Treaty in June 1919, since the terms of the Treaty were indeed very harmful to Germany: it took territory from the country, it forced it to pay reparations, and (and this term really caused indignation about the Germans) it blamed it and her allies for having started the war.

Since the Weimar Government was not popular and the country was facing tremeduous economic and social problems, the Nazis were able to gain the support of the German people, and eventually had the control of Germany.
