The preamble to the Declaration of Independence outlet to principles upon which the new government would be best which of these
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

A government based on a social contract, is the right answer.

Explanation:

The Second Continental Congress adopted the pronouncement "the Declaration of Independence" during its conference in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania on 4th June 1776. Under this declaration, the thirteen colonies of America had to explain why do they regard themselves as a sovereign state.

The thirteen colonies of America in the Declaration of Independence rejected the very idea of the divine right of rule and based their bid for independence on the Social contract theory of John Locke. John Locke in his "Second Treatise of Government" argued that the laws and political orders are the product of humans and are not natural. He also stated that people are born with some natural rights that the government or anyone can't take away. Therefore, these ideas of natural rights were adopted by the authors of the Declaration of Independence.
