Answer :

Answer:

Popular sovereignty

Explanation:

B Limited government is to govern in a limited manner, this has nothing to do with decisions made by majority or 9 states.

C Social contract is the title of the book written by Jean Jacques Rousseau before the French Revolution. It focuses on, in a perfect society, how the will of people should submit to the general will. In the case of the American Congress it´s the other way around.

D The natural rights of human beings might be political but definitely don´t belong to voting rules.

A Popular sovereignty: the government is created by and subject to the will of the people.
