Simon Sinek argues America's why is the Declaration of Independence: the belief that all men are created equal with unalienable rights. The Constitution is just the how. Political parties disagree on means, not on that shared ideal.
America absolutely has a why. And we were so lucky, unlike so.
Many other places in.
The world, because.
Our founding fathers.
Wrote it down for us. We literally have a document that explains.
Why we needed our own country.
In fact, we declared it. We declared our independence and we said that we want to have our own country because we have a simple belief. That belief is that all men are created equal. And we're endowed with these unalienable rights, life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. And what I absolutely love is that when we are at our natural best, we. We are pursuing that ideal. It's funny because we're always talking about the Constitution this.
And the Constitution that.
The Constitution is a structural document. It lays out the structure on how we will achieve our why and how we will actually achieve this ideal, this idealized state of what the world could be like. It's actually the Declaration of Independence we should be wrapping ourselves in, because every time we're at our best, we're pursuing that. Now, Democrats and Republicans will interpret differently the path to take to that, but at the end of the day, there's no difference between a Democrat and a Republican. It's just the manner in which they choose to interpret the path we take to achieve the ideal that is perfectly.
Written down for us in the Declaration of Independence.
It's one of my.
