You’re making some good points.
I just cannot believe the guy actually wrote this. The very essence of her view of dealings with others, was that it should be based solely upon reason and virtue, never upon force. She thought morality was a virtue. The problem is that we cannot agree upon terms, some people seem to think that “morality” is to agree that anyone, anytime, has a full right to claim the labor and property of others,,,,
This of course, is actually the bedrock of Obamunism.
