Inspiring Nebraska State Senator Shows Democrats How to FIGHT

One of the most serious troubles any democracy has is to elect

real "statespersons", people who look beneath the surface of

proposed laws/bills and devices what principles such actions

actually espouse/promote.  The principles are actually more

important than the actual law because it gives rise to what

will follow by way of interpretation.  For example the principle

of "a wall between church and state" underlays the right to

have freedom of religion, without such a principle the powers

of state can (and probably will eventually) fall into the hands

of the believers of one religion or another and that will be a

disaster to the right to enjoy religious freedom.
