It is our true policy to steer clear of permanent alliances with any portion of the foreign world; so far, I mean, as we are now at liberty to do it; for let me not be understood as capable of patronizing infidelity to existing engagements. I hold the maxim [principle] no less applicable to public than to private affairs, that honesty is always the best policy. I repeat it, therefore, let those engagements be observed in their genuine sense. But, in my opinion, it is unnecessary and would be unwise to extend them...

(2) The government may exercise only those powers specifically given to it by the governed. (3) The government should give up most of its authority to the states.

(3) Free speech can be limited if it poses a clear and present danger to society. (4) Assistance of legal counsel must be provided to accused persons. 23.
