Where is the Declaration of Independence located?
The Declaration of Independence is a separate document that announced to England that the colonies didn't want to be ruled by Parliament. It led to the Revolutionary War and when that was over, the Articles of the Confederacy and then the Constitution were written over the next several years. Both, in my opinion, are beautifully written and are very clear in their intent.

The Declaration of Independence states the American colonies are an independent country, and should be addressed as an independent country. This lets the king, Parliament, and British subjects know, they are no longer considering themselves as a part of Britain. Also, although it was pretty hypocritical for a country that allowed slavery, the document declares that 'all men are created equal.' This implies the colonies are no longer willing to allow themselves to be ruled over by a king and Parliament they already consider themselves to be equal to.

One of the complaints of the Declaration of Independence was the fact the Britain did not allow the colonies to establish a Judiciary Branch.

The Framers never intended for the Judicial Branch to be the strongest, but rather the weakest.
