Common Sense was connected to the Declaration of Independence as we can tell by looking at our quotes "Common Sense followed the natural rights philosophy of john Locke, justifying independence as the will of the people and revolution as a device for bring happiness." there were three natural rights in Common Sense and also there were three same natural rights in Declaration of Independence " ...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"
