林肯很早就告诉你了，甚至在《独立宣言》之前，洛克也告诉你了，世界洪流一脉相承，浩浩荡荡，由小及大…美国独立宣言里，“That to secure these rights, governments are instituted among them, deriving their just power from the consent of the governed. That whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness. ＂谁走帝制独裁就是倒行逆施。认同的是林肯说的现代宪政政府：that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom—and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth."
