Please find me a link online to a complete transcript of the speech by
Cardinal Ratzinger on November 6, 1992 where he was inducted into the
Academy of Moral and Political Sciences of the Institute of France.

Here are quotes from the speech: 

?imposed or even arbitrarily defined by external coercion.?

?Democracy in America has always made a strong impression on me,?

?an order of liberties in freedom lived in community, the great
political thinker [Tocqueville] saw as an essential condition the fact
that a basic moral conviction was alive in America, one which,
nourished by Protestant Christianity, supplied the foundations for
institutions and democratic mechanisms.?
