Another amazing and important framing post. However, I just want to remind everyone that last month was the 74th anniversary of the passage of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. The USA's vote in the United Nations at that time was cast by former Vermont Senator and Republican Warren Austin, who had been appointed by President Harry Truman.
Here is a short excerpt of the Preamble: "Now, therefore, The General Assembly proclaims this Universal Declaration of Human Rights as a common standard of achievement for all peoples and all nations, to the end that every individual and every organ of society, keeping this Declaration constantly in mind, shall strive by teaching and education to promote respect for these rights and freedoms and by progressive measures, national and international, to secure their universal and effective recognition and observance, both among all peoples of Member States themselves and among the peoples of territories under their jurisdiction."
So as you can see, all the things that Democrats believe are human rights and are supposed to be taught, respected, and promoted by all HUMAN BEINGS, whether Democrats or Republicans.
