Blog Assignment #13: Declaration of Independence

         Deceleration of Independence Question




1) How are the core values of American democracy incorporated in the Deceleration?
          
       The core values of the American democracy is incorporated in the Deceleration by not just how they lived life back when they signed it, but how we live life now as well. Like we have the right to be alive, to have liberty, justice, equality, and so much MUCH more.


2) What responsibilities does the government have to honoring these core values?What responsibilities do individual citizens have to preserve these core values? 


       The government has the responsibilities of honoring these core values are  when someone kills somebody to make them go throw a trial to see the incense or guiltiness of the killer. If someone doesn't get justice in that trial they can go through another trail to get justice. With the right to live, the government can't just come to our house and shot us, or anybody else, but people still do it. Individual citizens have to preserve these core values by not just shoting somebody, but still that doesn't always happen.


3) How might some or all of these core values be important to the preservation of a free and independent press?


      Some, or all, of these core values are important to the preservation of a free and independent press because when you are out on the street you have the freedom to just lift your hands and praise God. You also have the freedom to go to which church you want to, and be in which ever religion you want to without being put to death. With equality a man doctor and a woman doctor at the same level should get the same pay, though that hardly really happens.


4) Identify the core values of American constitutional democracy that allow private citizens to collect, edit and further distribute information to others and how the values help drive these actions. 


      The core values of American constitutional democracy hat always citizens to collect, edit, an further distribute information to others and how the values help drive these actions are truth, common good, and Popular sovereignty.


5)What responsibilities do producers of information have to these core values and their fellow citizens when distributing information? 


      The responsibilities producers of information have to have these core values and their citizens when distributing information is the truth. Without the truth nothing but made up lies would be on the news. Lying is one of the many forms of gossip, like if someone just lies saying a man ate a dog in one bite, people would spread it and the lie would become gossip. Though many, like the "magazines", don't follow this act of truthfulness.
