"We hold these truths to be self-evident that all men are created equal;
that they are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights;
that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness."
(United States Declaration of Independence, July 4, 1776)

And let's not forget our men and women who are serving in the military, especially the ones who are overseas, including my nephew Scott.

Psalm 138:7 ...
 

Though I walk in the midst of trouble, Thou wilt revive me; Thou wilt stretch forth Thy hand against the wrath of my enemies, And Thy right hand will save me.

What could be better for the 4th of July than Marvin Gaye singing our National Anthem on a video of the USA basketball team? Yeah - I know it's really a Nike commercial, but it doesn't promote Nike until the very end, and then hardly at all. Turn on your speakers. This is great.

Here's a video of President Obama on the 4th of July honoring some members of our armed forces at the White House. At 3:50 of the video, he honors Heather Adkins. Her mom is a friend of my wife.
