They won the war which enabled them to become a republican democracy instead of a monarchy. They freed themselves from central authority and wanted to have a democratic federal government to rule made out of people and not just nobles who claimed that they had right to rule.

Answer:
At first, they were very loyal to the king, but slowly grew angry with him after being ignored and treated unfairly.
Explanation:
At first, the colonies were very proud to be English. The first domino go fall would most likely be the proclamation of 1763, where the king ordered colonists to move closer to the coast and give the land they'd just risked their lives for (the French Indian war) back to the natives. Then came the taxes on stupid things, such as hats, legal documents, sugar, tea, dice, cards, etc. They started by sending petitions to the king, but were ignored, and slowly became angrier and motivated to act violently. By the end, they were anti-monarchy and believed that government should be for the people, by the people. 
 
        
             
        
        
        
Following the 1994 midterm elections, Republicans in Congress BELIEVED THE AMERICAN PEOPLE WANTED THEM TO MAKE CHANGES.
In the 1994 midterm elections, Republicans had campaigned on the promise of  a "Contract with America."  Newt Gingrich and Richard Armey wrote the document and spearheaded the campaign to take control of Congress back for the Republican Party.  (Republicans had not had a majority in the House of Representatives for 40 years.)  The Republicans picked up 54 seats in the House of Representatives in the 1994 midterm election, as well as gaining 9 seats in the Senate, to become the majority party in Congress.  So they believed they should carry out their "Contract with America" to make changes.
