'''Liberty''' is the political [[freedom]] of an individual. It is one of the "[[unalienable rights]]" listed in the [[Declaration of Independence]].  America's core political values, called [[republicanism]], are based on the extension of liberty to all. Liberty has been a powerful force in politics since the early 1800's, as [[government]]s around the world saw the success of the American model and have attempted to emulate it. Liberals have nothing to do with liberty, despite being similar-sounding.
