    D. Consent of the citizens.

    Explanation:

    In the US Constitution we see the principle of popular sovereignty embodied and expressed. It is one of the most important ideas of Enlightenment. Sovereignty lies with the people, not in an absolute monarch claiming to rule by divine right. It is up to the people to decide who should rule them.
