It is the story of a new world that became a friend and liberator of the old, a story of a slave-holding society that became a servant of freedom, the story of a power that went into the world to protect but not possess, to defend but not to conquer. It is the American story.


That is all completely fatuous, Ori, one gigantic lie after another. It is, like all US propaganda, the most odious propaganda.

@oristarA,

The challenger: David, former New York City trial lawyer
The challenged: George W. Bush, 43rd President of the United States

Bush had and has favorable approval ratings nationwide. Please be noted, he gave his point of view (see the opening post of this thread) eight months before 911 terrorist attacks, when the United States was a God-like prosperous nation on this planet.

David's approval ratings are questionable.

I suspect you will be fighting alone, Dave.

Yes Dave you're legal, but you're heartless.
That is why there is a reason that American Promise must exist.
Regardless of what putatively "must exist",
there remains a question qua the legitimacy of its jurisdictional predicate.

The difference between charity and robbery is freedom of volition.
I never consented to any such promise.

Under circumstances of necessity, an amendment can be added into the Constitution legitimately, and the legitimacy will be made.
We all can do more, be more.

Wrong!

8 months before 9/11 Bush's approval ratings were quite poor. Half the country hated him. After all, his political allies in the US Supreme Court had just stolen the 2000 US Presidential election from Al Gore and had handed Bush the White House.

His approval ratings soared after terrorists attacked in September. Americans rally around their leaders in times of war.

No one 's approval ratings are relevant to the factual
veracity of anything that he says; e.g., if a popular person
says that 3 + 3 = 7, that allegation remains incorrect
no matter HOW MUCH people like him.

What actually HAPPENS and what CAN happen are very different things.
If I cud amend the Constitution, it 'd be a lot different
than what u have advocated. I 'd have a lot more Individualism and personal LIBERTY.

That 's true, that thay DID hate him.
I did not think much of him either,
but AlGore was a lot worse, more authoritarian, so I voted for W.

That is either a lie,
or a bloviation of mindless ignorance of what actually happened.
Bear in mind that AlGore himself declared W to have been elected President.
W won Florida fair and square.

I agree with most of what you wrote.

But you rate non-Americans too highly. "Sheeple" is the default setting for the human brain.

There's one thing that scares Americans into submission more effectively than patriotism. Tell them their attempt to defend what's precious to them about their lives will "cost jobs" and you can control them like they're marionettes. I'm sure that spell works just as well on people outside the United States.

Don't compare the approval ratings of Bush to that of Al Gore. Compare it to that of David, the former NYC trial lawyer.

The old dog would not budge even if his special spellings were bombarded by 99.9% of A2K members. And now you can rethink about his support rate.

Why didn't you say "The alleged American promises remain devoid of any foundation in law (or "the current law")"? That would sound more reliable.

I tell you: Bush and his supporters think the promise is a truth.

The proposition that no insignificant person has ever been born is the another form of the expression that all men are created equal. If David thought he's not born to be insignificant, then everyone's not born to be insignificant. So everyone deserves a chance.

Abraham Lincoln was fighting for the proposition (See Address at Gettysberg), so was Martin Luther King Jr.(See the address I Have a Dream). The list is an endless stream, Dave. It is called American Dream.

I see no reason to speculate, nor to guess, that matters
will degenerate away from Original Americanism. David





I tell you: Bush and his supporters think the promise is a truth.
I denounce them. When Reagan chose Bush to be his Vice President,
I disapproved. I ratify and re-affirm my disapproval.
Reagan needed to choose a conservative, such as himself;
instead, he opted to balance out his ticket.
That was a poor choice.

Incidentally, we might note in passing that we have no way
to ascertain what thay THINK. Very, very few politicians
are sincere; thay do not write their own speeches
and thay say whatever thay calculate will assist them in elections.

On its face, the notion that:
"The grandest of these ideals is an American promise that everyone belongs" is ridiculous;
it is a federal crime for aliens to sneak in here. Everyone does NOT belong.

NO men have EVER been equal; not even identical twins, nor identical triplets.
On close examination, differences will be found; (ask them).
Admittedly, thay might be equal in some respects, e.g. same number of lungs or legs, etc.
Even cloned animals are not 1OO% equal;
differences, however minute, will be discovered upon investigation.
