An idea from the english bill of rights that influenced the declaration of independence was that
the power of kings and queens is limited.
only the chosen leader should make laws.
a government should not hold free elections.
people have no right to free speech.

the power of kings and queens is limited.

The correct option is "the power of kings and queens is limited."

The Bill of Rights is a document drafted in England in 1689, which imposed the English Parliament on Prince William of Orange to succeed King James II. The main purpose of this text was to recover and strengthen certain parliamentary powers that were already missing or notoriously diminished during the absolutist reign of the Stuarts (Charles II and James II). It is one of the immediate precedents of modern "Declarations of Rights"

in griswold v. connecticut (1965), the supreme court ruled that a state's ban on the use of contraceptives violated the right to marital privacy.

social contract theory basically says that all individuals are born equal, and provided a god given right to consent to be governed. american government is based of this

thomas hobbes and john locke said that we are selfish, individualistic, and constantly at war with each other, therefore we need to be controlled. 

government is defined as the legitimate use of force to control human behavior within territorial boundaries, here comes in hobbes and locke.

hobbes takes the part about controlling human behavior. while locke takes the part of legitimate use of force, since force is not legitimate unless there is consent of the people. 

there are basically 3 goals of the government: 1) maintain order by protecting life and property. 2) providing public goods, those which are typically not provided by the public sector, such as roads and education. 3) promote equality be it political, opportunist or outcome equality.
