4.9: Universal Values
Advancing Universal Values Other Information:
America's leadership extends beyond our economic prosperity and military might—it is also rooted in our enduring commitment
to advancing a core set of universal values. These include an individual's freedom to speak their mind, assemble without fear,
have access to information, worship as they please, and choose their own leaders. They also include dignity, tolerance, and
equality among all people, and the fair and equitable administration of justice. The United States was founded upon a belief
in these values, and people of every race, region, and religion around the globe have claimed these principles as their own.
The President and the Democratic Party believe that nations that embrace these values for their citizens are ultimately more
prosperous, peaceful, and friendly to the United States than those that do not.
