Happy Birthday America!

WE NEED TO KEEP MOVING FORWARD FOR SOCIAL JUSTICE!

• All treaties and international conventions affect the advancement of democracy around the world! Is it not time we got tough, practical but fair and hold all countries with treaties to the highest due process and equal protection standards guaranteed by the U.S. Bill of Rights, instead of the known failed “due process” standards of certain treaty members? Is is not time for U.S. leadership to demand that the world meet minimum standards consistent with the U.S. Bill of Rights? Is it not time for America to live up to its promises?
   
• Remarks at the White House Conference on the Americas: Secretary Condoleezza Rice reminded us at the Hyatt Regency Hotel in Crystal City, Virginia on July 9, 2007 that:
  
  “Democracy, at its best, is not a status quo idea. It is a radical idea, capable of sparking individual revolutions in the human condition - of transforming people's lives through self-improvement and social mobility. But to do so, democratic leaders must govern justly, they must fight corruption, and they must invest in their people. They must reform their state institutions to be more transparent, and inclusive, and accountable. And they must build dynamic, resilient economies that adapt to change, that harness the opportunities of regional and global trade, and that hold out hope to the poorest and weakest among us. That is how democracy leads to social justice.
  
  Democratic citizens and the true democratic leaders of the Americas have made that commitment, and whenever they look to the United States for partnership, they are finding in us a dedicated friend. We want to play a supportive role, an effective role as all of our nations work to adapt to the challenges of the 21st century - and we all work together to build here, in the Americas, a community of sovereign nations that are successful, competitive, and free - that meet their peoples' needs, and help to unleash their tremendous creativity and their industry. That is why advancing social justice is the focus of U.S. policy in the hemisphere today. “ {emphasis added}

  Senator Biden | Senator Lugar: “The Senate Foreign Relations Committee described the 1986 Supplement Treaty as a successful "effort to balance anti-terrorism concerns and the right of due process for individuals."[2] Senator Biden explained, in a colloquy with Senators Kerry and Lugar that was adopted in the report accompanying the treaty, that the Senate intended the Supplemental Treaty to allow for broader judicial review:
   
• [T]he defendant will have an opportunity in Federal court to introduce evidence that he or she would personally, because of their race, religion, nationality or political opinion, not be able to get a fair trial because of the court system or any other aspect of the judicial system in a requesting country, or that the person's extradition has been requested with a view to try or punish them on account of their race, their religion, nationality or political opinion.[3]” end quote {emphasis added}
  
  IF WE ARE ALL COMMITTED, AND IT APPEARS WE ARE, THEN WHY ARE THE INTERNATIONAL LAWS STILL SO “UNCERTAIN”? WE NEED HEARINGS TO EXPLORE “CERTAINTY”, CONSISTENCY IN INTERNATIONAL LAW, and “SOCIAL JUSTICE IN LAW”!
