If I were to choose the most important principal, I would have
to say separation of powers in that, if they join together their power will
become unstoppable. Also each branch has their own responsibilities that they
are specifically good at. Also it would be way unfair to the founding fathers
also, in the declaration and constitution that we the people have the right
over government pretty much. We choose in a way what they do, by voting. And that’s
why its important to keep them separate.

21st century citizen
I personally think a well informed citizen is someone who is up-to-date on their current events, technology, and politics. Also someone who can fit in with society without being looked upon in a way that is out of date or old.

The Declaration of Independence vs. The Constitution of the United States
The Declaration Of Independence difffers from the Constitution of the United states in that the Declaration declares independence, and the constitution are the basic set in stone rules of the new country. Yet they are simular in that they both tell what are government how our government will be.
Article I section 1. All legislative powers herein granted shall be vested in a congress of the United States, which shall consist of a senate and house of representatives. As the declaration says" We, therefore, the representatives of the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, in general congross assembled, appealing to the supremem Judge of the world for the Rectitude of our intentions, do in the name, and by the autority of the good people of these colonies"
