The defense of these rights has become necessary many, many times. The main idea and goal of 76 was for the U.S. to be an individual nation and not be dominated by any other country. Throughout our history we have continued to be anti-imperialistic. The War of 1812 is a direct example of this. We were so determined that no nation was going to be our master that we carried the idea toother countries. The two world wars may have led some people to believe that the U.S. was trying to take over and run things herself. Actually we were en- deavoring to keep these countries from being overthrown by greedy, over-confident forces. The United States soon realized that if she didn’t defend the right side in these wars, she would soon be under dictatorship and having to endure the things to which she was most opposed. The United States continues to fight against totalitarianism by having a national election of a president every four years. This gives more qualified people the chance to do what they can for their country and also eliminates the chance of the development of a dictatorship. We keep a large army and have an extensive reserve program for the protection of our basic rights. We not only protect our own freedoms but also try to help other nations gain them. In Italy, after World War II, the U.S. helped see that a more democratic form of government was created, with the freedoms and rights we hold so dear. At the Geneva conferences we have tried to unify Germany and give her the power to run her government in a democratic way. The countries of southeast Asia have also been affected by the Spirit of ’76 in ’56 in the United States. We have defended them against communism in the hope that someday they may be independent and free like the U.S. We are continually trying to combat communism in our country and abroad. Communists in the United States use our fifth amendment to protect themselves. Does this mean that we should repeal the amendment ? NO I That is probably what they want us to do. If this amendment was repealed it would hurt our fellow Americans extremely because they might have to testify against themselves in court. It is one of the basic rights we have to defend the most. As long as we continue to fight for the rights we claimed for our own in 1776 and as long as we champion others who believe as we do, we shall continue to have the spirit of ’76--not only in ’56 but forever, and not only in our own United States but in all freedom loving nations through- out the world.
