Declaration+of+Independence-+madisonbb11

**William Williams-**
====**I am William Williams ; born April 1731. I used to be a merchant and now I am a delegate for Connecticut of the Continental Congress (1776). I am here to persuade you to sign the //Declaration Of Independence// thats states why we should depart from our mother land, England .**==== ===We came to this land for change, this is the land of the free. England is making parasetic changes that only they benifit from. We the people have minds - and should be able to make decisions that we all beleive in, that make a positive change for everybody. I don't know about you but my heart has become apart of this land, my family is here , and all I want is the best for not only myself but for them to. What example are we showing the kids of this country if we cant fight and think for ourselves- for our rights and our beliefs. A baby cant grow up properly if the imbilical cord is still connected to the mother ; so I feel as if this is the time to cut from England.===

===Thoughts might be running through your mind right now about what I am saying. Some may be positive - some may be negative. You should not believwe what I am syaing is true, but you should also trust what I'm saying - Im just like you - one of you : an american. This declaration is not only for me and my family but it is for this whole country, and everybody that walks on it. Me and the Continental Congress just dont want to make changes for us, we want to make changes for everyone ; to make things easier and better in our lives. Thats why you should trust me ; I'm not just a mouth with something to say - I'm a person just like you who wants independence.===

===The Declaration states all of the problems that we (America) have with England- such as having problems with not being able to make our own laws for all of the fellow americans goods ; We the people believe that we should be able to make laws in our own country, King George is not here to witness what we need he is only hearing about it ; and we the Constittution dont believe he understands our problems and concerns to the full extent. Another reason to sign the declaration is about King George sending the red coats to come live with us in in our houses for no valid reason - why does the King find it neccesary to send these soldiers to America, if there is no visible threat?=== ===All our men should be treated equally - this is America, and i believe that the rights ogf life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness is the main that we should have control over. "This is our time, not their time - there time is over there ; but whats happening right now - down here is what we have control over ." - The Goonies.===
