Blog Assignment #13: Declaration of Independence

              In the Declaration of Independence it says "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness."We all have certain rights and we all are created equal. The Declaration of Independence says that governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed. That whenever any form of government becomes destructive of the ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to destroy it, and to institute new government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them it might seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness. To protect the core values the citizens have to follow the laws and live by the Declaration of Independence.They are all important because they help us keep ourselves together. We stay a free independent press by following the laws. If we follow the laws, we can't get taken over like many societies. The core values of the Declaration of Independence are all men being equal and all have certain rights. There are more core values, but these are the most important. The values help drive our government by helping us to stay on track and not becoming a government where we aren't free.The responsibilities of the core values that producer of information and their fellow citizens have when distributing information are they need to get to the point, they need to be nice about it, and they need to be polite. We all need to follow the Declaration of Independence.
