The Hypocrisy Of Democracy In America PDF Download

Internationally celebrated, America's Declaration of Independence resounds throughout the earth, proclaiming to all who will listen the self-evident truth that "all men are created equal." Under President Lincoln, this historic proposition gave rise To The Fourteenth Amendment To The United States Constitution, a unique legal mandate that commands no person in this country shall be denied "equal protection of the laws."Combining transcendent political principle with sublime rule of law, this extraordinary ethic is personified in the statue of the Goddess Liberty; standing colossal and defiant in Upper New York Bay, her torch ever illuminating the heavens, she announces to all the world, by day and by night, America's solemn pledge that the tired and poor of distant lands shall, upon reaching these shores, find the elusive, coveted sanctuary heartlessly denied To The by all others.However, For many years now, In gross breach of this majestic national faith, and on a scale so massive it denies precedent, The American government has routinely, methodically, and with unspeakable cruelty, inflicted acute suffering upon hundreds of thousands of poor misfortunate souls who, hopelessly downcast, naively raised their eyes To The United States, expecting from her People the integrity to fulfill the promise of their open pledge.Who are these anonymous, unsuspecting victims of American dishonor? They are the poorest, weakest, and most helpless members of our society- the desperate and destitute paupers from other nations who, inexorably impelled by a state of extreme, unimaginable privation, migrate here in courageous disregard of unjust laws that Dr. King, were he alive today, would surely censure with prophetic severity as "morally wrong and sinful."In flagrant violation of the United States Constitution, federal immigration agents in collusion with state law-enforcement officers, daily acting under the color of governmental authority, have for years now been summarily arresting, secretly detaining, illegally imprisoning, and unilaterally extraditing these people, all in brazen disregard of the rule of law as ratified by the Founding Fathers and upheld for more than two centuries of Anglo-American jurisprudence..In 1855, Abraham Lincoln insisted that to suggest the proposition "all men are created equal" does not apply to foreigners is akin To The suggestion that the latter glorious principle does not apply to Negroes or Catholics; such a notion, declared America's greatest president, Is "hypocrisy."
