    John Locke believed in three inalienable rights, life, liberty, and property. Much of the Declaration and other writings of Thomas Jefferson were influenced (mostly plagiarized) by John Locke's writings. This is absurdly apparent in not only the Declaration Of Independence, but also much of the Federalist papers.

    Explanation:

    John Locke FRS was an English philosopher and physician, widely regarded as one of the most influential of Enlightenment thinkers and commonly known as the "Father of Liberalism". Considered one of the first of the British empiricists, following the tradition of Sir Francis Bacon, he is equally important to social contract theory. His work greatly affected the development of epistemology and political philosophy. His writings influenced Voltaire and Jean-Jacques Rousseau, many Scottish Enlightenment thinkers, as well as the American revolutionaries. His contributions to classical republicanism and liberal theory are reflected in the United States Declaration of Independence.
