suffice it to say, the Founders viewed two different meanings (although only slightly different) with the words liberty and freedom and when constructing the constitution they used the terms with purpose. If you want to get into it, feel free to start another thread or email me.
ahenry,
I think it best if you start the new thread and outline your argument concerning the nature and difference of liberty versus freedom. I'm interested in reading it. Post to this thread if you do so/and or IM me. Thanks.
