Answer:
4) John Locke
Explanation:
In 1689, John Locke wrote "Second Treatise of Government" in which he mentioned about the equal rights of the individuals. He spoke about the natural rights of the individuals that are an inseparable part from the lives of the people. He mentioned that the fundamental rights are "life, liberty and property". Preserving life, freedom to choose and rights to own property are the basic natural rights. It is the duty of the government to secure these rights and protect each individual from being prohibited from these rights.
Depending somewhat on the time-period in question, it was the "military" who often wielded a large amount of power and control, since they restricted many individual liberties.
A commission was sent to France in 1797 to discuss the disputes that had arisen out of the U.S.'s refusal to honor the Franco-American Treaty of 1778. President Adams had also criticized the French Revolution, so France began to break off relations with the United States. Adams sent delegates to France to meet with French Foreign Minister Talleyrand in the hopes of working things out. Talleyrand's three agents told the American delegates that they could meet with Talleyrand only in exchange for a very large bribe. The Americans did not pay the bribe, and in 1798 Adams made the incident public, substituting the letters "X, Y and Z" for the names of the three French agents in his report to Congress.
