Why did George Washington not sign the Declaration of Independence?

What ways does the declaration reflect France's specific problems and crises?

The declaration establishes the principles of society that will be the basis of the new legitimacy, ending the principles, institutions and practices of the Old Regime: "The principle of all sovereignty lies essentially in the nation." The Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen considers legitimate the revolt of the deputies against the absolute monarchy, when declaring as the indispensable right of the man the "resistance to the oppression".


Causes of revolts?

People revolt because they are unhappy with their social and economic situation and feel that the existing government has no interest in responding to their legitimate complaints and reasonable requests for reform. Once they begin to feel helpless under a particular regime, they realize that the only way to redress their complaints is to eliminate the existing government and replace it with one that will respond. That means revolution. This is why the Declaration of Independence stated that governments are instituted to secure the rights of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness and that whenever governments become destructive of those ends, it is the right of the people to alter or abolish that government and institute a new one that shall seem more likely to serve that purpose.

The Declaration of Independence expresses the idea that governments must derive their power from the consent of the governed.

Both emphasize the importance of individual rights and the role of consent in forming a legitimate government.


What signer of the Declaration of Independence is the descandent of Reese Witherspoon?

The word here would be 'ancestor'. Reese Witherspoon claims to be a descendant of John Witherspoon but she is in error. According to 'The Descendants of the Signers of the Declaration of Independence, Vol. 3' the last male Witherspoon in John's lineage was born in 1924 therefore negating Reese's claim to direct descent. Similar surnames do not make legitimate claims for direct descendancy.


What is the philosophy that inspired the Declaration of Independence?

That all people are neturally equal and therefor neturally entitled to the same fundamental rights. Because people are imperfect they require government to establish an orderly society but the proper function of government is to guarantee their rights. Since the rights inher in the people they are the ones who can jundge how their rights can best be protected. Therefor governments are only legitimate when they have the consent of the people being governed and the people have the right to withdraw that consent and change their government if they think their rights are threatened. Read the declaration itself. Jeffersons words are far better than mine. Michael Montagne
