John Locke and "The Enlightenment"

In the US constituion Thomas jefferson is saying that the people in the country should chose what kind of goverment it wants. Also he beleives that the g0verment should be made to serve it's people and if it doesnt work people can "abolish" the goverment. Thomas wanted a democratic goverment that wasnt opresive and that would actually serve its people instead of taking advantage of them. He also wanted one where each person could have a voice in dicided who runs the country instead of them being born into leadership and not being able to properly run a country.
