How did the Magna Carta, English Bill of Rights, Mayflower Compact, and Thomas Paine’s “Common Sense” influence the colonists’ views of government?

The Magna Carta limited executive rule, the English Bill of Rights influenced the idea of low taxes, the Mayflower Compact influenced a civil government, and "Common Sense" influenced the colonies to break away from England. Hope this helped! :)
