> There seems to be some confusion over the term, "founding values."  Here
they
> are from the pens of founders in the Declaration of Independence:
>
> "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal,
that
> they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that
among
> these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these
> rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers
from
> the consent of the governed,
"
>
> And I, for one, feel blessed to live in country founded on such values.
