The creation of the Federalist Party, that favored business, a strong government and a lax interpretation of the Constitution, and the Democratic-Republican Party, that wanted a society based on small farms and a weaker core government; changed the nature of politics in the US as they proposed a dichotomy when voting, since the Constitution had been silent about political parties.
No--the Declaration of Independence only represented the opinions of the Patriots.
The Declaration of Independence provides the Patriots version of how the American-British relationship was working. It declares their opinion of the King, taxation, and their lack of representation.
The Declaration of Independence was written to first express the grievances of the Patriots toward the King, George III. Though George responded, the responses were also biased and only represented the views of the King toward those rebelling. The actions of the Patriots didn't even represent all of the colonists. It was truly a slanted document representing northern colonists who were educated and often at least a middle class standing.
