Democracy and socialism.. by socialism I mean the general acceptance that the government serves the people not visa versa.
Without these concepts many of the great ideas would not have been developed as the minds that formulated them would not have had the oppotunity to do so beacuse of a lack of education or simplty being to busy working the fields for their "betters"

I wager there are extra human beings picking up a replica of our structure and bill of Rights to study thier rights. in case you dont comprehend your Constitutional Rights this guy, Obama and his cronies, will thieve them from you. yet he replaced into elected in the twenty first Century. so i might want to ought to say Harry S. Truman. He replaced right into a SOB yet He replaced into an outstanding SOB and our SOB. He delivered WWII to an end saving tens of millions persons squaddies. Helped Germany and Japan rebuild.
