Roman Caposino September 3rd-9th, 2013 Chapter II Questions AP Government/Politics At the time of the Revolution, most colonists believed that English politicians tended to be corrupt, and therefore the English constitution by which these politicians governed was not an adequate guarantee of the liberty of the citizens. Colonists believed that their rights and liberties were supplied by God, and included life, liberty, and property. To the colonists, the revolution was a war of political liberties rather than economic issue. The weaknesses of the Articles of Confederation: The government could not levy taxes or regulate commerce. Each state retained its sovereignty and independence.
