John Locke and Thomas Jefferson




The rights that Jefferson was talking about are life, liberty, and the pursuit of hapiness. He said that people were created equal by God. Rights were given to people by God. To have these rights protected and maintained governments are formed. The government gets its power from the people that the government governs. That type of government is a democracy. I think that democracy is the best froms of government becuase people like it.

If the people dislike the government, they can try to make another government. First they would have to overthrow the present government. The would need enough people to revolt against the government to form a revolution. The owrd Revolution means change. It doesn't always have to deal with war.
