Declaration of Independence
This document, while not law, says the creator gave men their rights, and says that those men may establish a government to protect those rights. The US Constitution, linked below, is the Founders' attempt at preserving those rights. This also is why it is said that our government is founded upon religious principles.

The Bill of Rights
These first ten amendments to the US Constitution are believed by too many to be the grantor of our rights. If you read them you will see that they merely prohibit the government from taking away rights that we already have. They also prohibit the government from taking away any rights just because they are not enumerated in the Constitution. Remember they do not have to be spelled out, because "We the People" have all the rights.
