A 'Quality of Life' Key Value and the Founding US Green Party Platform
- A 'Politics of Values' that speaks to protecting, preserving, nourishing life on our Living Planet
* https://www.greenpolicy360.net/w/Planet_Citizen_Vision_of_Living_Earth
Our overall goal is not merely to survive, but to share lives that are truly worth living. We believe the quality of our individual lives is enriched by the quality of all of our lives. We encourage everyone to see the dignity and intrinsic worth in all of life, and to take the time to understand and appreciate themselves, their community and the magnificent beauty of this world.
Steve Schmidt: "In drafting the founding Green Party platform, I was attempting to put forward a 'politics of values, an expansion of a rights agenda'. The goal was a 'serious, credible, platform-based politics'. The Green Party has expanded internationally to become a worldwide green political force in over 100 countries. We are an 'out in front' politics..."
(Note: subsequent to the above statement on the drafting of the Green Party Platform, the US Green Party was taken over by an extreme cadre, a political faction with a professed ideology that is far from the Green values and positions as stated in the original founding Green Party Platform and 1990s organizing. As a result of this cadre-faction's hostile takeover of the US Green Party (i.e, expropriation of the remnants of the Green Party) and cadre's dictated substitution of an anarcho-program, the GreenPolicy360 Siterunner ended all association with the current US GP.)

'A Democratic Republic... if you can keep it -- Benjamin Franklin
United States 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.”
-- U.S. Declaration of Independence, July 4th, 1776
Protecting Freedom, Protecting Rights, Protecting Democracy Nation-by-Nation, Community-by-Community
A Democratic Republic, a 'Great Experiment' in the United States
A foundation of rights, human rights, put forward with and embodied in a founding US Constitution, Bill of Rights and Constitutional Amendments -- together a Constitutional government envisioning a living Democratic Republic. Ours is a democracy, a republic, a work-in-progress continuing to this day, a heritage worth protecting... The US Declaration of Independence proclaims ... “We hold these truths to be self-evident”.... “all men are created equal”... with the right to “life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness”, with rights to live under a government of their own choosing.
We recall a quote of Benjamin Franklin responding to a question in 1787 about the newly announced birth of the US as he left Independence Hall after the Constitutional Convention:
We have "a Republic, if you can keep it."
The 'Enlightenment' & Natural Rights ... Recalling 'The History of Ideas'
The idea of natural rights is the concept used in philosophy and legal studies that a person has certain rights from birth and which, because they were not awarded by a particular state or legal authority, cannot be removed, that is, they are inalienable. Such rights may include the right to life, liberty, equality, property, justice, and happiness.
