We're doing original declerations of independence. Does this sentence have any run-ons or fragments? It is my preamble.

I, (My name here), am declaring myself independent of American History because of its boring properties and information I will never use; as a human being with personal rights and ideas, I am entitled to do so.

Answer #1

This is a better way. You semi colon is unneeded between use/as and the sentence is therefore a comma splice. I fixed it for you by removing it and placing rearranging the subject.

I (My name here), am declaring myself independent of American History because of its boring properties and information I will never use. I am entitled to do so as a human being with personal rights and ideas,

This is what my mom said it should be. She is very smart in grammar.

It should be:

I,(your name here), am declaring myself independent of American History because of its' boring properties and information. I believe I will never use the properties and information; therefore, as a human with personal rights and ideas, I am entitled to do so.
Answer #3

To me it sorta is. If I were you , I'd put: I, (My name here), am declaring myself independent of American History because of its boring properties and information I will never use. As a human being with personal rights and ideas, I am entitled to do so.
