Reply #13: Let's Draft A Second Declaration of Independence [View All]

I posted the suggestion below within a thread I started called "Call to Action - A Second American Revolution" - perhaps we should create a separate thread to solicit inputs regarding the 2nd Declaration of Independenc - I took a stab at the intro paragraph below:

This is why I believe we need to draft a 2nd Declaration of Independence, and have 100-200 leaders sign it, because we don't need approval from anyone to do so.

Furthermore, it would be neat to draft it..I imagine one could borrow the language of the 1st document, along the lines of:

"When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to RESTORE the political bands OF DEMOCRACY which have connected them with EACH OTHER, and to RESUME among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, WHICH THEY HAVE ENJOYED AND LOST, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the RESTORATION OF DEMOCRACY."
