	Common Sense Americanism - FDR's "Four Freedoms" Speech
		As war raged in Europe and Britain was scraping the bottom of her munitions barrel, President Franklin Roosevelt delivered his 1941 State of the Union message in which he urged Congress to authorize the loaning of weapons and other needed supplies.
		The speech is laden with appeals to American patriotism, which Roosevelt knew would be needed to stave off criticism of his plans, and to raise American munitions production to the levels necessary not only to sustain our British cousins fighting Hitler, but also in the greater struggle which he surely knew was coming.
		Part of that appeal to Americanism was his vision of the four essential freedoms which he predicted could be restored to Europe only upon the defeat of Hitler.

		Freedom by the Fireside: The Legacy of FDR's “Four Freedoms” Speech
		While many of the most frequently-studied statements about freedom were published in the form of written documents such as the Bill of Rights or the Magna Charta, the library is certainly not the only place where Americans encounter references to freedom.
		FDR's speech presents an opportunity to highlight a subtle distinction that has troubled political philosophers through the ages: the distinction between "freedom FROM" and "freedom TO." Notice that two of FDR's four freedoms are framed as freedom to do something: freedom to speak one's mind and freedom to worship as one sees fit.

		In spite of the ringing rhetoric of the speech, Roosevelt oversaw the internment of Japanese immigrants and their children living on the west coast of the United States once this country was officially at war in the Pacific.

	1/6: FDR "Four Freedoms" on this day in 1941 - The Cellar
		The 1940 speech was concise, explicit, to the point, and extremely clear (especially the four freedoms).
		The George Jr speech meandered, was vague, was many times longer, defined some key points but the rest of the speech had little attachement to those key points.
		The Four Freedoms speech was certainly in the minds of presidential speech writers, and the President, when he delivered his speech following the September 11 attacks.

	The Four Freedoms \| MetaFilter
		Freedom is the ability to do what you want, pretty much when you want, without repercussions.
		FDR was using repetition to heighten the impact of his speech, but I think it is far from clear that he was deceitfully conflating the concepts of "liberty" and "lack of".
		The libertarian conception of freedom is not the "freedom to do what you wish", but simply an assurance that whatever you do wish to do, nobody else will try to stop you.
