We're not going to meddle in the internal life of other peoples and other governments, because we don't want them meddling in ours.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I think we are realising that governments can't govern us any more.
The statesmen still say that we should not interfere in the internal affairs of other nations and yet it is not possible any longer not to interfere, even when we do not mean to do so.
We cannot afford to walk down that dangerous path of government overstepping its boundaries into the most personal parts of our lives.
I don't think that anybody should be ruling in or ruling out anything while we are conducting diplomacy.
We prefer self-government with danger to servitude in tranquility.
We must govern from the middle, or we will not be able to govern at all.
The role of government is to steer us in the right direction, not do all the work for us.
We have to knock down the barriers erected by greed, special interests, powerful forces.
In all disputes between conflicting governments, it is our interest not less than our duty to remain strictly neutral.
Government exists to protect us from each other. Where government has gone beyond its limits is in deciding to protect us from ourselves.
