"The human race is in the best condition when it has the greatest degree of liberty."
Dante
According to dictionary.com the word liberty in its most base noun form means freedom from arbitrary or despotic government or control.
Once more I will pose a question. Are we truly full of liberty in our world? America has been known to be liberators in the past. The federal government has also been known to enslave and annihilate entire populations to gain their land holdings. This is apparent in the treatment of the Native Peoples in the Americas.
Wouldn't it be great if Barak Obama {our first man of color to own the White House }was to appoint a Native American to his cabinet staff. Then we might be headed to a true healing in this world.
"O liberty, how many crimes are committed in thy name?"
Madame Roland
