We in the US have tended to look upon The Declaration of Independence and the Pledge of Allegiance, for example, as FACTS, when they were and are the TRUTHS of our national self-image and ASPIRATIONS to guide our future. We can have "a more perfect union" with "liberty and justice for all," but we have to work at achieving them.
