Which phrase represents an attempt to prevent objections by Roosevelt's audience? excerpt from Franklin D. Roosevelt's Four Freedoms Speech
On January 6, 1941, President Franklin D. Roosevelt spoke to Congress about the potential effect that World War II might have on the United
States and its policies. His address has since become popularly known as the Four Freedoms Speech.
Just as our national policy in internal affairs has been based upon a decent respect for the rights and the dignity of all our fellow men within our
gates, so our national policy in foreign affairs has been based on a decent respect for the rights and dignity of all nations, large and small. And
the justice of morality must and will win in the end. Our national policy is this:
First, by an impressive expression of the public will and without regard to partisanship, we are committed to all-inclusive national defense.
Second, by an impressive expression of the public will and without regard to partisanship, we are committed to full support of all those resolute
peoples, everywhere, who are resisting aggression and are thereby keeping war away from our Hemisphere. By this support, we express our
determination that the democratic cause shall prevail; and we strengthen the defense and the security of our own ration.
Third, by an impressive expression of the public will and without regard to partisanship, we are committed to the proposition that principles of
morality and considerations for our own security will never permit us to acquiesce in a peace dictated by aggressors and sponsored by
appeasers. We know that enduring peace cannot be bought at the cost of other people's freedom
