Answer: Life, freedom, and the ability to own property
Step-by-step explanation:
The original idea was that Americans could have the life they wanted, they were given freedom, and they would be allowed to own property without someone being able to take it away. (interesting fact you can throw in... the saying "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness" was originally "life, liberty, and property")
Know that I did this from memory and may be wrong but these are three ideals the founding fathers had.
