Try altering your search terms. The Web is loaded with documents about the American Revolution. However, a computer can only search the terms it's given. GIGO, you know!

In the meantime, start here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Revolution

Despite what some people will tell you, Wiki is not a bad preliminary source. I wouldn't make it my main or only source for a paper, of course, but it's not a bad place to start.

Good luck!

Taxation without Representation was a kinda big seller. See the Citizens were paying taxes and the Government never helped the Citizens that lived in the taxed places. kinda like today.
Fair and Legal right of property. The Government could read your Private mail, ask your neighbors if you ever visited or saw this person and they didn't need a warrant or a judge. kind alike today.
Fair and Proper Jurisprudence: A person could be taken into custody without charges, tortured or persuaded to talk and then be killed or let loose with no recompense. kinda like today.
A Person could be forced into the Army and ordered to fight for King and Country. kinda like in Vietnam and I hear one of them guys was talking Draft again, so kinda like today.
A Citizen was not allowed to marry without a Certificate of Marriage from the Crown and King: Kinda like today
A person was not permitted to practice a religion that was not approved by the Government. kinda like today.
A person that owned land could have the land taken away by Magna Carta Law of Immanent Domain: kinda like today
The Coin of The Realm, money was just worthless paper that had a promise of some value: kinda like today
I did not have to search anywhere for that is what I learned in school 35 years ago and that is what I see today.
