What fundamental principle of American democracy is the basis for the reason why the Declaration of Independence was sent to King George III and is reflected in John Locke's ideas of a social contract?
The fundamental principle of American democracy that is the basis for the Declaration of Independence being sent to King George III and is reflected in John Locke's ideas of a social contract is that of popular sovereignty. Popular sovereignty is the principle that the power of the state is derived from the will of the people. This is the basis for both the Declaration of Independence and Locke's ideas of a social contract because it establishes that the people have the right to overthrow a government that is not in their best interest. The Declaration of Independence was sent to King George III to inform him that the people of the United States had chosen to exercise their right to popular sovereignty by forming their own government. Locke's social contract also established popular sovereignty by arguing that the people have the right to overthrow oppressive governments and form new ones that would better serve their interests.

Who was the most influential thinker from the enlightenment?
In my opinion, John Locke was the most influential enlightenment thinker because of his opinions of people's freedoms and government's role in society. His take on the social-contract theory shaped our government and his ideals are reflected in the Declaration of Independence. He thought the government ruled by permission of the people, and if the government was intruding on our inalienable rights, (life,libery,property) then we have a right to overthrow or change the government.
