Answer:
John Locke
Explanation:
His <em>Second</em><em> </em><em>Treatise</em><em> </em><em>Concerning</em><em> </em><em>Civil</em><em> </em><em>Government</em> almost directly reflects these ideas. He uses the phrase "life, liberty, and property" which is very similar to "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness". Locke was a pioneer of the Enlightenment era in Western history (1715-1789) and his ideas greatly influenced Thomas Jefferson, author of the Declaration of Independence, and thus the Revolution as a whole
From the point of view of the radical republicans, the main flaw in president johnson's amnesty plan for former confederate officials was that it was far to lenient.
The Declaration of Independence states that the United States of America is a country in its own right, independent of England, and includes a list of grievances against the king of England, while the U.S. Constitution formed our federal government and set the laws of the land.
The primary reason why it was essential to draft the Articles of Confederation was that the colonies needed a unified government in order to sign treaties and organize a defense force.
