Match the ideas that influenced Thomas Jefferson to the thinkers who wrote about them.
Orlov [11]

The correct answer to this question is the following.

Match the ideas that influenced Thomas Jefferson to the thinkers who wrote about them.

John Locke:

-People have the right to create a new government if their government does not obey the social contract.

-A government should protect the natural rights of its people.

Thomas Paine:

-The American colonies were at a considerable distance from their ruling nation.

-The laws imposed by the British government on the colonies were unreasonable.

Founding father Thomas Jefferson was an Antifederalists who played a prominent role in the drafting of the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776, and in the creation of the new Constitution of the United States during the Constitutional Convention of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania during the summer of 1787.

Jefferson received the influence of the ideas of Thomas Pain and his pamphlet "Common Sense," and of English Enlightenment thinker John Locke.

Other brilliant minds of the Enlightenment inspired other American founding fathers like Benjamin Franklin. We are talking of Enlightenment philosophers like Voltaire, Thomas Hobbes, Jean-Jaques Rosseau, and Baron of Montesquiou.
