Answer:

Direct vs virtual representation. Imperial vs. local control by representative colonial assemblies. Popular sovereignty and the common law rights of englishmen to live under a government of their own choosing vs. arbitrary imperial control. British felt that parliament should be trusted to represent them because colonists are still englishmen and so parliament will look out for them. Americans do not approve of this idea. Overall sense that americans were different.
