The magic of the American experience is that we've upheld the rule of law for everybody, everybody treated equally beneath the law.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
What I perceive, is above all justice, where everyone has the same law.
In America, we have long stood by the principle that the protections of the law are not meant just for some.
Every American has the duty to obey the law and the right to expect that the law will be enforced.
If the law doesn't apply equally to everybody, then you don't really have a system of law.
We cannot uphold the rule of law only when it is consistent with our beliefs. We must uphold it even when it protects behavior that we don't like or is unattractive or is not admirable or that might even be hurtful.
Just because there are people who violate rules, behave illegally and so on, it does not mean that everybody is like that. On the contrary, if you watch certain judges, you observe that they honestly try to implement what they believe the Constitution says and just put it into effect.
I firmly believe in the rule of law as the foundation for all of our basic rights.
We are supposed to all be equal before the law, but we have a separate and distinct ruling class, and that is wrong.
We are a nation of laws, and we will always act within the bounds of the law.
America has the laws and the material resources it takes to insure justice for all its people. What it lacks is the heart, the humanity, the Christian love that it would take.
