We are "endowed by our CREATOR with certain unalienable RIGHTS." Liberty (freedom) is one of those rights given me by the CREATOR. Okay Vger, but what do we do with all these carbon based life forms ? Just kidding. That was a joke. Actually I agree with the quotes from that magnificient document our founding fathers drafted. Would also like to note, as others have, that being a democracy does not automatically mean you support freedom. Hitler was elected. Saddam was elected. Sometimes within a democracy people are threatened or coerced into doing something bad for their own freedom. The underlying goal should be democratic societies that give their citizens freedom from tyranny and oppression. Which of course means, that some democratic societys may have to kicked out when they elect a Hitler and Saddam as their Executive Leaders.

Do we really want a powerful world government to enfoce "rights?"
I sincerely, doubt that any new UN would be the US writ large. Rather it would be of the Euro-socialist model. How lo0bng before we are sanctioned for not having a proper welfare state?
