But the purpose of government, according to the founders, is to secure those rights.

If your party is going to continue to brush that primary self-evident truth aside it will die. And it will deserve to die.

Actually, you make a very good point.

Define what “secure those Rights and morals” means?

If Rights and Morals already exist, which our founder’s acknowledged these existed without government...

“that to secure those rights ...governments are instituted amongst men.”
