Why this is the answer
Both founding documents share core ideas. The Declaration says all people are created equal and have natural rights such as liberty. The Constitution puts these ideas into practice: the people govern themselves through elected leaders, government power is limited and divided, and government rests on the consent of the people, a social contract. Name any two from the list.
