They were life, liberty, and property. John Locke influnced american and Thomas Jefferson. Thomas Jefferson took these ideas and change them a bit and put them into the american constitution. Jefferson's rights were life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. With life the person was allowed to live the way they wanted. With liberty they were granted freedom. As for the pursuit of happiness the person was allowed to search for what made them happy. Accordding to the constitution the government was created for the people, by the people and to the people. The people are the ones who created the government for themselves so they choose how to be ruled. If the people do not like the government or the person in charge they can over throw the government. The government gets the power from the people. The people have a right to change the government. That is why sometimes we will have a republic president and then we could have a democratic president.
