By virtue they meant to be  morally correct. And it was guided by religion.

Nevertheless, to provide the real virtue comes from an inner force and should not be imposed. That is how virtue and liberty are tied. To be really free you should choose virtue as result of your own beliefs.

That is what the independence declarataion and the consitutuion promoted liberty and virtue.

Then the laws ant their enforcement were the media to ensure the virtue (and freedom).

I believe that the answer to the question provided above is the attitude of never giving up. The virtue here refers to the attitude towards somethings. By election the leaders are rightfully choosen.
