The best right is the right to freedom of speech and expression. I really value that right because I grew up in a household where I was not encouraged to express myself freely. I love that I can say what I want to see, read what I want to read, listen to whatever music I want to listen to and dress the way I want to dress without reprisal. I couldn't live any place where I couldn't enjoy that right.

Free speach, but don't be suprised if the longer you live the less free it becomes. We lose more and more of our rights all the time and it's sad that for the most part the American people won't stand up for their rights any more than they do.

Some of the best rights are missing in the US Constitution such as:
"Everyone, as a member of society, has the right to social security and is entitled to realization, through national effort and international co-operation and in accordance with the organization and resources of each State, of the economic, social and cultural rights indispensable for his dignity and the free development of his personality."
"Everyone has the right to form and to join trade unions for the protection of his interests."
"Everyone has the right to rest and leisure, including reasonable limitation of working hours and periodic holidays with pay."
"Everyone has the right to a standard of living adequate for the health and well-being of himself and of his family, including food, clothing, housing and medical care and necessary social services, and the right to security in the event of unemployment, sickness, disability, widowhood, old age or other lack of livelihood in circumstances beyond his control."
"Nothing in this Declaration may be interpreted as implying for any State, group or person any right to engage in any activity or to perform any act aimed at the destruction of any of the rights and freedoms set forth herein."
Having freedom of speech is well and good, but the right to complain to corrupt leaders is a dead-end.

The freedom of Religion. That is the one that caused our forefathers to come to the United States. I assume they considered it to be the most important.

The right to pursue life, liberty, and happiness.
Beyond that, the right to free speech is the most important

Most definately the right to keep and bear arms...
Freedom in speech is pretty good though!

I like the first one because it protects us from others trying to silence us, also protects us from organized religions ruling the land which is what we fought for in the beginning of our country.
