Based on the words in the Preamble, do you think the Declaration of Independence was written for selfish or ideological reasons?

Explanation:

I tried putting two answers so you could choose for yourself. Also change up the wording if you want.

I believe that the Declaration of Independence was written for selfish reasons because it preserves the power and privilege of rich white people.

I believe that the Declaration of Independence was written for ideological reasons because it talks about having freedom and equality for all.

it was certainly a debatable decision, mainly because it was based primarily on political - and not on legal or social - views. since the congress at that time was led by members of the republican party, and the territory that the tribes wanted to turn into an exclusively indian state was predominantly democratic, the proposal (as expressed in the constitution) did not succeed, but the constitution itself proved to be of crucial importance in the creation of the state of oklahoma, and, most importantly, it guaranteed the involvement of representatives of the indian tribes in the government of the future joint state.  

as a member of congress, i would have voted to ratify the constitution, or at least to have it tabled. ignoring it was an interested and partial decision.
