Hillary Clinton To Lead By The Very Words of The Declaration Of Independence?

If Hillary Clinton gets elected as President, there is not much hope for, as she puts it “heading in the right direction.” Don’t be fooled by her rhetoric, because it will be International Politics as usual, and this is why:

Hillary makes a striking proposal in her promise as President on her website (www.hillaryclinton.com). She proposes to “lead by the words” of the Declaration of Independence.

In this article we’ll take a closer look at the words Hillary uses along with what she promises to accomplish, and then we’ll look at the actual context of what is really said in the first of our countries founding documents.

In her  “Restoring America to it Standing in the World”, Hillary states that the Declaration of Independence “pledges a decent respect to the opinions of mankind (period . . . emphasis added).”

The following in a excerpt from her website: http://www.hillaryclinton.com/issues/security/

Americans are ready for a leader who will restore America's reputation in the world, and Hillary is prepared to lead America back in the right direction. The next president's most urgent task will be to restore America's standing in the world to promote our interests, ensure our security, and advance our values. America is stronger when we lead the world through alliances and build our foreign policy on a strong foundation of bipartisan consensus. As president, Hillary will lead by the words of the Declaration of Independence, which pledged "a decent respect to the opinions of mankind."

Now is this really true? Clearly, out of an old "Clintonesque" habit, a major interpretation error is encountered here. She misinterprets an actual word of the Declaration of Independence; entitled and replaces it with pledges. Only a Clinton lawyer can do this so well. But lets not let her get away with this!

“Pledges” in her interpretation, implies that, decent respect for mankind is pledged, or solemnly promised by the Declaration of Independence.  When the real context of the sentence is held together by the “actual word” used in the original Declaration: “entitled”.

The “Declaration of Independence” declares the context in which the declaration is being made, “it” itself, did not guarantee or pledge anyone anything. It was plainly stating that current human events had reached a point of consensus, “that when the going gets tough, the tough get wiser.”

The Declaration was an acknowledgement of the necessity of “a people” to separate themselves from tyrant bands of bad politics and politicians who had long subverted the known laws of Nature and Nature’s God, and most notably, the inherent freedoms that comes with being born a “human being” made in the very image of that Creator, God.

The following is is an excerpt from The Declaration of Independences Introduction (purpose) which can be found on: www.wikipedia.com, searching for The Declaration of Independence.

In Congress, July 4, 1776,
THE UNANIMOUS DECLARATION OF THE THIRTEEN UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the Powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

In context, the Declaration of Independences authors and signers recognized that what they are about to do is to assume some of the God given, recognized Powers of the earth back to themselves . . . that Natures God “entitled” them to (those that the British stripped away from them). Our gentleman founders realized that mankind, in order to garner the best potential of decent respect in their free opinions, should clearly write those opinions down. They knew that it was a matter of clear conscious and that it was only right to declare “why” they are separating themselves from the power of British rule. Mankind would need to know why they did it (the British, along with the rest of the World). Plain and simple, the Declaration of Independence pledges nothing, but the signers pledged themselves to the cause laid out on that historic piece of paper in 1776.

What followed was the later ratified 1789 Constitution of the United States of America. That document set the laws and boundaries, that the strictly Republic government was to stay within, while at the same time spelling out what “entitled” God given rights (so acknowledged in the Declaration of Independence), would be protected through that Constitution and the later Bill of Rights.

The framers and signers of the Declaration of Independence understood the context of their use of the word entitled . . . as something that comes with “a just claim” originating from God. Quite different than that of today’s Democrats and Republicans who understand that word more than likely to mean “entitlements” . . . as originating from socialist government (i.e., Our Democracy).

As it relate specifically to the Clinton’s, I guess it will come down to what the definition of the word “entitled” is, that is, if you can define what “is” is first. I guess we’ll have to leave that up to the US Supremely Socialized Court.

Seriously, socialism is the real topic in this discussion. Hillary is dead wrong in making this a basis for her campaign that the Declaration of Independence “pledges” something that it clearly doesn’t. From her perspective, that decent respect for mankind originates from the Declaration of Independence and not the recognition our founding fathers clearly gave to God earlier in the same sentence!

Hillary, you can mince words, but when it comes to The Declaration of Independence . . . YOU CANNOT CHANGE THEM, NOR THE CONTEXT OF THEM!

If you are one of those who think you can, then truth must be "relative" to you, but then again, how could that fact even be considered truthful if truth is relative? That type of logic doesn't work does it? But this type of logic is both running and ruining our country and all it's Constitutional checks and balances!

But I am not done yet. Many may count this as trivial hair splitting, but I hope that you see what the internationalists, like Hillary ,and the others are up to. Words have no real meaning today, and the populace’s apathy allows historic words to be stripped of their historic context and purpose.

Hillary’s error becomes even more glaring in the fact that her website states: “America is a Democracy”, when in fact, the United States of America is clearly a Constitutional Republic. See: http://www.hillaryclinton.com/issues/voting/ for yourself. The words “US Democracy” is bouncing around our warming globe like a melting super-ball! I don’t know about you, but I am sick and tired of it!

How much more tax and spend policies do we need to see (and hear) from today’s “shape-shifting, image crafted, driveling” Democrat and Republican politicians for us to realize that they are quickly pushing historical Constitutional America into a historic Communist grave?

The scary fact is that they are either so out of touch with reality that they don’t even know what type of Government the US is, nor the document that protects our God given freedoms and guarantees our rights, or worse than that, they know exactly what they are doing . . . AND WE DON’T!

Hillary’s goals are pretty clear: “The next President's most urgent task will be to restore America's standing in the world to promote our interests, ensure our security, and advance our values.”

My question to her would be: “How in the hell are you going to do this when you don’t even know what urgent means, what America’s standing ever was, or what our true interests really are?”  

We need to realize that national security is far, far, from the minds of today’s groomed politicians who are more than likely pushing forward to a North American Union, while America sucks on an 800 mile long “southern border lollypop” that will last about 17 months.

From the Clinton Camps perspective, the only thing that seems to be valued is contained in the context of Hillary’s use of the term “our values”, which has to mean only one thing . . . Bill and Hillary’s.

Of first importance, it is time to rise up and take back what is most valuable to America . . . the historical context and meaning of the words of the Declaration of Independence and our Constitution, which acknowledge who’s really in charge around here . . . God!

Likewise, it is time to renew the understanding that in America, our Government was formulated and instituted among men to secure our God given rights (DOI Preamble), and that this Government gets it's power from the consent of the governed. That is a power delegated by God. Our Constitution protects that right, and The Declaration of Independence clearly lets us know, that when our Goverment steps over the boudary of being a servant of the people, that it is the duty of those governed . . . to throw off such Government and provide new Guards who know what our Republic Governments real, truthfull, and historic purpose is!

Now, will America remain apathetic toward the Clinton Socialist/Communist views, or will America step up to being vigilant against such "International Slave Drivers?" Each one of us must provide the answer to that question before any positive changes will ever occur. 

Today's politicians only see freedom and rights being derived from Government, and
that fact, for certain,  only comes from a form of truth that is by today's standards . . . relative.
