Lead the world by example, not by force. I think most Americans would admit that war is bad, but they don't beleve itr can be eliminated. I admit that I don't have the solution on the tip of my tongue, but that doesn't mean there is no solution. And even if they can't do it in our time, that's still no reason to blindly accept war, to give into its corrupting force. Victory in war doesn't prove might makes right.
Progress only occures when imagination transcends experience.
I believe Jefferson would truly be disappointed if he saw the Unites States on his 250th birthday. What we need to decide as a nation then, is should we try to live up to the ideals of Jefferson and our other founding fathers. If we choose the latter, then we should come up with some new documents for our government because those ideas don't fit those of the Constitution and Jefferson's Decaration of Independence. Write to me.
