The government has more power then the Roman
1. I choose the Emancipation proclamation.
The basis for a democratic country is the guarantee of human rights for all of its citizens and allowing all citizens the right to participate in the government.
Freeing other humans from slavery indicates his will to truly bring equality for all people int he nations, because he knew that slavery robbed the very essence of human rights from the people together with their dignity.
2. I compared it with Habeas Corpus
Habeas Corpus allow prisoners to report unlawful treatment when they're in their sentence. Indeed this represent Lincoln' willingness to preserve human rights, but the impact is nowhere near the Emancipation of Slavery that affect millions of human beings.
3. I belive Barrack Obama would be a good example.
Despite his blunder in adressing several economic issues in united states, General population believe that Obama always tried his best in perserving human rights and democracy. (could be seen by programs such as HAPA that give the right for children that born in united states by non-citizzens the right to be a legal citizen)
One of his accomplishments could be the defeat of Hannibal's brother Hasdrubal. This was at the battle of Baecula all the way back in 208 B.C. and within the next year was able to convince the local people of spain to pledge their allegiance to Rome.
In the battle of Zama he was able to defeat Hannibal through a funny turn of events. The Romans sounded horns that scared the Carthaginian elephants causing them to trample the troops.
I don't really have a third one off the top of my head but you could look up his military accomplishments since that is what he was known for. He was known for superior military abilities.
<span>Men do not have an exclusivity to how the affairs of the nation should be run. EVERYONE, over a certain age should be allowed to participate in the electoral process. Merely based on gender puts a lie to "equal representation", for then, it is only conditionalized representation. As to arguments that women will vote for the cutest candidate that belies their intelligence. Also, keep in mind that men vote for candidates because of the party affiliation and not on any platform so presented. If we believe in equal rights for all, it MUST extend to the ballot box. It must be fair and equitable and it must be for all, regardless of gender, race, creed or political stance. I, as a citizen of this nation, must be allowed to express myself in the affairs of this country and voting is one of those avenues.</span>
