1) equality of people.
The Virginia Declaration of Rights states that "all men are by nature equally free" - this is an important American value that is also reflected in the US constitution

1st Amendment, US Constitution:

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
