Freedom or power?
Andrew Sullivan asks the question that should define what America and all people want for the world.
Freedom or power?
Liberal democracy means a society predicated on freedom. It is the nature of who we are, even as we pretend otherwise. That was what drove men and women like Baron de Montesquieu, Voltaire, John Locke, David Hume, Edmund Burke, John Stuart Mill, Lord Acton, Mary Wolstonecraft, Frederick Douglas, Harriet Tubman, Sojourner Truth, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Susan B. Anthony, Mohatma Ghandi, John Dewey, Friedrich Hayek, Milton Friedman, Martin Luther King, Karl Popper and so many othes to work and argue on behalf of freedom and liberal, democratic, and republican principles, and America's founding fathers including James Madison, Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, George Mason, Thomas Paine, and all the rest to establish a liberal democratic republic in America.
They tirelessly sacraficed for our freedom.
It is time that we chose.
