Question

Read the excerpts from historical documents.

From the Declaration of Independence:

. . . That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.

From the Declaration of Sentiments:

Whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of those who suffer from it to refuse allegiance to it, and to insist upon the institution of a new government, laying its foundation on such principles, and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness.

Why do Jefferson and Stanton include these similar excerpts in their documents?





Answer:
because they are heartfelt praises intended to applaud activists
because they mention the Founding Fathers in an attempt to inspire
because they are powerful calls to change that define their causes
because they are battle cries that demand physical confrontation

Answer 1

The answer is:

because they are powerful calls to change that define their causes

According to the Declaration of Independence and the Declaration of Sentiments, American citizens are acknowledged and have the right to put an end to harmful methods of government. As a result, both Jefferson and Stanton authorize people to take action when their freedom, security and contentment are at risk.
