In the <em>Declaration of Independence</em>, Thomas Jefferson expressed various grievances of the colonists against the British, such as:
- The king refused to assent to laws that were wholesome and necessary for the public good.
- The king had forbidden colonial governors to enact laws or implement laws without his assent (which, as the prior point noted, he was in no hurry to give).
- The king forced people to give up their rights to legislative assembly or forced legislative bodies to meet in difficult places that imposed hardships on them.
- The king dissolved legislative assemblies and then refused for a long time to have other assemblies elected.
- The king obstructed justice in the colonies and made judges dependent on his will alone for their salaries and their tenure in office.
- The king kept standing armies in place in the colonies in peacetime, without the consent of the colonial legislatures.
- The king imposed taxes without the colonists' consent.
There were more items listed by Jefferson, but you get the idea. He was justifying revolution by proving tyranny was standard operating procedure by the British monarchy.

How does paragraph 8 contribute to the development of ideas in the text?
Answer:
It describes how presidents can use the State of the Union to publicize their goals.
This is the correct answer because that paragraph talks about the way the United States President used the State of the Union Address to inform Congress and the American people about the situation of the country in politics, economy, security, and more.
But nowadays, the situation has changed and the US President uses public relations programs to appear before the media and tries to influence public opinion through mass media.
The UN commission conclude about the events in Darfur is human rights had been violated, but that the conflict was not genocide
<u>Explanation:</u>
The Commission concluded that the Government of Sudan has not attempted a policy of genocide. Arguably, two elements of genocide might be gathered from the gross violations of human rights committed by Government forces and the militias under their control.
These two elements are, first, the actus reus consisting of killing, or causing serious bodily or mental harm; and, second, based on a subjective standard, the presence of a defended group being targeted by the authors of criminal conduct.
