John Locke believed that a government's power comes from the consent of the people. He argued that individuals have natural rights that governments must protect, and that if a government fails to do so, the people have the right to overthrow it.
Governments must serve and protect their people APEX;)
The Declaration of Independence and the constitution.
One of the Enlightenment thinkers who believed that people had the right to overthrow bad governments was John Locke. Locke argued that if a government fails to protect the natural rights of its citizens – life, liberty, and property – then the people have the right to rebel and establish a new government.

John Locke's writings, such as his theory of natural rights and limited government, inspired colonists to value individual liberties and question British authority. Colonists felt that the British government's infringement on their natural rights, such as through taxation without representation and strict control, went against the principles of liberty and consent of the governed espoused by Locke. This ultimately fueled their resentment towards the British government.
governments should be based on the consent of the people.
