“Freedom, by its nature, must be chosen, and defended by citizens, and sustained by the rule of law and the protection of minorities. And when the soul of a nation finally speaks, the institutions that arise may reflect customs and traditions very different from our own. America will not impose our own style of government on the unwilling. Our goal instead is to help others find their own voice, attain their own freedom, and make their own way.” WayMayDifferentSoulHelpingGovernmentAmericaLawSpeakNationsGoalVoiceStyleCitizensTraditionInstitutionsProtectionHelping OthersAriseChosenMinoritiesCustomsUnwillingRule Of LawCustoms And Traditions Author:George W.
