First of all, the Declaration of Independence was written in 1776 by Thomas Jefferson. His main idea of the document was to call for complete independence of the states from the British Empire. His idea was decentralization, or distribution of powers, as well as freedom. The Gettysburg address stresses the need for one united country.
