UK Opportunity: Mentor Democracies through Commonwealth!

Boris Johnson has led the Commonwealth in recent years.  He knows that the Commonwealth stands strong in promoting and developing countries longing to explore democracy, equality of peoples, and rule of law foundational institutions in their lands.  All the while, uniting through bonds of comrade-ship the joys of family.

Today, Rwanda stands as a beacon of strength in fighting for Africaners against the Covid-19 virus.  Drawing upon the wisdom gained to know how to respond to these deadly forces of nature, Rwanda, one of the members of the Commonwealth, I understand, is fighting back--successfully.

The reader may know that the US military has reached out globally to be welcomed by over 190 countries to establish its military installations--mostly, bases--upon their foreign shores.  I believe the United States through this simple gesture of its military presence has wrought much in providing assistance and support to the cause of peace and prosperity for the entire planet.

Be that as it may, the goals and goodwill that the Commonwealth represent among its membership of nations should be more widely acclaimed as those worthy of even greater acceptance.  I am proposing that through a mentorship program, members reach out to even more nations to enable them to become democratic and pursuers of the aims of social justice and equality among all regardless of race or creed.

Democracy is available to all nations to adopt; education in the ideals of human worth and value;  and technological advance of peoples may be studied and admired, but until nations are experimenting themselves in the advances of civilization that signify the growth of human potential and the exploration of the human psyche (through acts of individual expression and freedom of the human longings to be a self of worth and honor), few countries indeed will afford their citizens the opportunities to experience the wonders of their own natural abilities.  Instead, most countries will continue to harrass human variation from a cultural norm.

Rotary for years has had a program whereby citizens of an advanced technology become paired with citizens of another: city to foreign city.  So too, countries can benefit by learning from those countries professing the high ideas that democracy and human equality for justice and social acceptance.  It simply needs a start.

I think now that the UK has no longer declared itself part of EU, it is in position to assume the helm of the Commonwealth once more.  May it reach out to show how countries may establish the rule of law, of justice for all equally, and welcome the spirit of brotherly unity.
