One political principle that colonial americans came to cherish above most others was

Right to self government.

Explanation:

The colonial experience of the American colonies was not homogeneous. The vast coastline of America allowed merchants to trade outside the control of Britishers. The distance provided by the Atlantic ocean created enough space to develop skills for self-government.
