Basically, these two cannot be separated. The answer should be both. How can you be happy without liberty? Having the liberty of doing whatever you like. Such liberty is the pursuit of happiness. Take note that happiness is a subjective term. It is defined individually. If happiness is dependent on relative terms then such pursuit of happiness requires freedom, liberty.

Without life you could not have liberty or pursue happiness. Without liberty how could you be happy? So since I have life, I will rate the other two in connection to one another....It is not an either or question to me.

if only things were that simple..
i'd like to say 'the pursuit of happiness' but if we did not value life and liberty just as equally, we would not be able to pursue that which makes us happy..

My life the way it is now because I am free to do as I please and am happy with myself, and if I'm not I can choose to change the way it is going at anytime and thus allowing me to follow in the pursuit of happiness

What good is either without the other? These were well thought-out words when the United States Declaration of Independence was being written.
Every human deserves each.
