Happy Independence Day

Here are inspiring words:

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.

I am not sure everyone across the Earth believes that, but I am confident that in these lands the majority does.  They may bicker and complain, but they believe, we believe, those words from the Declaration of Independence.

Let us rejoice in this day, when those who went before us mad a stab at Democracy and came pretty close, and left us a firm foundation upon which to build, and a way to build.
