UN Human Rights Council Address

Stage One: The federalists was orginially published with the intent with persuading New York's anti-federalist population to vote in favor of the Constitution. However, nine states were needed so the Constitution would've gone into effect without Virginia or NY's vote. The series of essay's provided a thorough and rational explanations of importance of the new US Gov. It could not provide trade regulations, inforce foreign treaties, or protect the states from invasion. Because it had no power to empel it's individual states to follow it's rulings.

Stage Two: The US provides an army through taxation to provide protection for it's citizens. It works with other countries to create peace for our nation. In the US, the state and federal governements work together in protecting the common good. The states often serve as a testing ground that later become national laws. It keeps the Gov. closer to the people.

Stage Three: In Vietnam the country does not protect it's citizens as it should. Police mistreat suspects during arrest using lethal force and extreme prison conditions. Citizens are arrested for political and denied the right of affair and expeditious trial. The Gov. prohibits independet human rights organizations, violence against women and human intrafficing continues.

Their citizens do not have the right to change their Gov. peacfully and they don't freely choose the officials that govern them. All authority and poliotcal power can not be up to one power and in Vietnam it is the communist party.

Stage Four: “If men were angels, no government would be necessary. If angels were to govern men, neither external nor internal controls on government would be necessary. In framing a government which is to be administered by men over men, the great difficulty lies in this: you must first enable the government to control the governed; and in the next place oblige it to control itself. A dependence on the people is, no doubt, the primary control on the government; but experience has taught mankind the necessity of auxiliary precautions.”
