The Enlightment

According to the declaration of independence, we are all the same because there isn't a difference from any man even from skin or race. Jefferson talks about that we have the right to speak or in other words freedom of speech which everyone in America has the right to have. Freedom of speech is used in debates,strikes and speeches. I think the even though the government is suppose get and get permission from the people they still try to control stuff like war. "That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed", this quote means that they derive there power from the people.
We are suppose to be the government the people are suppose ton run it but we only have the power to vote.. We are a democracy which as very good advantages to everyday living.
