The latest New Yorker magazine which is dated September 1, 2008 has a good article about the Governor of the American state of Colorado.
In the article Gary Hart is quoted.
“Westerners are individualists who do not like the beliefs of others imposed on us…We are people who believe in principles: integrity, honor, courage, accountability. The religious right preaches values. Democrats, regionally and nationally, should espouse principles, for ourselves and for our country.” He argues that while “values” have religious connotations, “principles” are secular.
I wholeheartedly agree and might add honesty and humility to the list.
