A system in which states agree to form a national government, but maintain their sovereignty
The Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States ('XIV Amendment') is one of the post-Civil War amendments, and includes, among others, the Due Process Clause and the Equal Protection Clause. It was proposed on June 13, 1866, and ratified on July 9, 1868.
The amendment provides a broad definition of national citizenship, which overrides the decision of Dred Scott v. Sandford (1857), who had excluded slaves and their descendants, from possessing constitutional rights. It requires states to provide equal protection before the law to all persons (not just citizens) within their jurisdictions. The importance of the Fourteenth Amendment was exemplified when it was interpreted to prohibit racial segregation in public schools in the Brown v. Case. Board of Education.
Respect for the sovereignty of all nations means that the United States will first try to use equitable trade practices before considering imposition of our will on other nations through economic, diplomatic, or military means, except as a last resort when that nation poses a clear and present threat to our national security and prosperity.
We have long term national interest in supporting nations that respect the basic dignity and rights of their citizens. This national interest also includes, when REQUESTED, assistance in building and maintaining freedom and prosperity, which helps reduce anti-American sentiment.
A fiscally responsible foreign policy means accepting the fact that not every good we wish to do is a good that we can afford to do. Furthermore, the US will look to help poorer nations, and/or those struck by disaster, by assisting in the improvement of infrastructure and industry through use of unbalanced trade that will be renegotiated on a regular basis as the beneficiary nation’s situation improves.
