5000 points for you Below write a paragraph identifying these principles in the Introduction of the Declaration of Independence. Do you think we are still striving to achieve these goals? Explain. do it in your own word 1 or 2 paragraph

the whole purpose of GOVERNMENT is to secure the PEOPLE'S RIGHTS and that government gets its power from "the CONSENT OF THE GOVERNED." If that consent is betrayed, then "it is the right of the people to alter or abolish" their government. When the Declaration was written, this was a radical statement. The idea that the people could reject a monarchy (based on the superiority of a king) and replace it with a republican government (based on the consent of the people) was a revolutionary change.

While the signers of the Declaration thought of "the people" more narrowly than we do today, they articulated principles that are still vital markers of American ideals. And while the Declaration did not initially lead to equality for all, it did provide an inspiring start on working toward equality.

yes the first one is correct .
