and here's a hint:
If you were a member of the Second Continental Congress in 1776, you were a rebel and considered a traitor by the King of England. You knew that a reward had been posted for the capture of certain prominent rebel leaders and signing your name to the Declaration meant that you pledged your life, your fortune, and your sacred honor to the cause of freedom.

that is the record written in 1776 broadly speaking by Thomas Jefferson, John Adams, and Benjamin Franklin which declared the independence of the yank colonies from the British monarchy. that is the major founding record of the USA, besides the undeniable fact that it did not set forth a structure of authorities, because the structure did.
