Description: While induvidual human rights stands at the core of democratic principles, we need to discuss the intent of this approach. The assumption of the founding fathers must have been to assume the trickle down effect where IF an individual is free then society would be free!! While that is an ideal hope it does not seem to happen because minority strength ( earlier muscle and now economic) is able to prevent the process of equalization. 
Actions: Though anyone suggesting any change to " the principles of human rights" is considered a heretic within democracy, the intention is to acknowledge the failures of experience and find better "implementation strategies" now that the entire world is adopting democracy but cannot seem to implement it in the same way and at the start. Since many participants may not be constitutional experts (including myself) it would be nice to have some legal participants along the way to help. The AIM is to try and develop a better implementation model that seeks to create milestones before the NEXT step. you may read old blog seen at www.nonlinearthinking.blogspot.com

The desire is to over simplify where there is maximum complexity and conflict.
