Stern on American Liberalism

[Liberalism is one of ] America's noblest traditions . . . [It has] transformed the world. Its greatest victory has been the American Revolution; its greatest pronouncement, the Declaration of Independence; its greatest bulwarks, the Constitution of the United States and the Bill of Rights.
Fritz Stern, NY Times Op-Ed, Sept. 4, 1988
(after Reagan attacked Democrats as "liberal, liberal, liberal.")
