There were several drafts of the Declaration of Independence written before one was agreed upon to send to the King of England. The first drafts were written on the cheapest paper of the day which was created by use of hemp.

Yes, the American Revolution was over before the Constitution was written. The Declaration of Independence was signed on July 4, 1776 at Independence Hall in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The US Constitution was signed by 39 of the 55 delegates to the Constitutional Convention, on September 17, 1787, at the same location, which was then known as the "Pennsylvania State House".
While it's immediate target was George III and the British Parliament, the declaration had a secondary purpose. Jefferson stated that in writing the Declaration he "wished to place the facts before the world in terms so clear and direct as to command their assent."
The Declaration of Independence was written to declare independence from Great Britain. It stated that America was a new colony.
Ha! Trick question! There WAS no America before the Declaration of Independence!
The person who called for a revolution before the declaration of independence was written was John Dickinson.

Yes, the Declaration of Independence was a proposal for a revolution, and the constitution was only written after the revolution was completed.
no of course not
No, it was written before the war.
The colonies didn't ask to be part of lawmaking. The English government was ruled by a king and kings don't include their subjects in making laws let alone the people several thousand miles away in a colony.
before the declaration the colonists had the right to rebel against Brittan, but when the declaration was written they had many more rights and much more independence.
The Declaration was written before the Constitution, which outlines the Presidents terms of service, so not really.
