Freedom and Equality are human values.Democracy is Government,"of People", "by People" and "for People".

The Freedom and the Equality of every Individual must be protected in a Democracy. Democracy is a Government "of People", "by People" and "for the People". Governments would not exist but "for the People". The People themselves 'establish the Government' along Constitutional requirements. Governments cannot exist if there are no People to govern. Two Individuals on an Island need to 'live and work together'; 'respect each Other'; 'get along with each Other'; but, each one is Free and Equal. No Individual, regardless of Race, Color, or Creed, is 'lesser' than Another. One or Two Individuals on an Island do not need a Government. When the 'condition of togetherness' increases into the 'Many', or into thousands and millions, then the 'condition' needs Government. But, Government, which would not even exist, but for the size of the 'Condition of togetherness', has a 'legal obligation' to protect and preserve the 'Freedom' and 'Equality' of 'each' and 'every' Individual in the 'condition of togetherness'. Of course, there are many different types of Government; but all Governments 'should Preserve and Protect' the Freedom and Equality of every Individual within its Jurisdiction. Even an Autocracy or a Dictatorship should respect the 'human condition', and some do. But, the Democratic form of Government has a 'duty' to Protect and Preserve the Freedom and Equality of all Individuals. Its 'very constitution' is 'based' and 'founded' on the many 'Peoples' who are to be governed. The 'principle of Life' is inseparable from the 'human condition', but Governments are political 'Institutions' that have been 'established' by 'human beings'. Governments assume many different 'forms', but all are 'secondary' to the 'human condition'. Freedom and Equality are 'human values', inherent in the 'act of living', while Governments are 'political Institutions' with Power, but 'secondary' to the Human condition.
