HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY!
To countless millions, this flag stands for the brave freedom fighters who stood against the greatest empire in the world to bequeath liberty and the opportunity to pursue happiness to all those who come to this nation, seeking to employ their skill and their intellect toward not only their own personal goals but toward the sustaining of that amazing, free nation.
Where else can the sons of former slaves stand along side the sons of former slave owners and proclaim their allegiance to this flag?
How can this be?
Because ultimately, these fortunate children -- no matter the color of their skin or whether they came by the Mayflower or by slave ships -- have embraced the liberty declared by the Betsy Ross flag and by the documents that embody it.
