God bless America!
We've come a long way since the beginning, huh?
But we've still got work to do.
I am still a proud American. Be safe everyone.

That's a given. As a group, Americans need to be coaxed, we won't be conquered. There's some very good coaxing going on, though.

You don't need coaxing, you need coxing, you know a cox is a little fellow in a rowing skift who yells row, no coaxing there, just much get on with it, row harder, row faster:)

What we need is a leader who doesn't use the day as an opportunity to distort our history .
As CIC ,he delivered an Independence Day address from a balcony like Juan Peron looking down over the active duty members and their families in attendance. He could not help but show his basic contempt of the Founding Fathers who risked their "Lives ..,Fortunes ..,and.. Sacred Honor" to lead the Revolution.
"We celebrate the principles that are timeless, tenets first declared by men of property and wealth but which gave rise to what Lincoln called a new birth of freedom in America—civil rights and voting rights, workers' rights and women's rights, and the rights of every American," ..."And on this day that is uniquely American we are reminded that our Declaration, our example, made us a beacon to the world."
It would be a waste of time for me to go through the list of the names of the founders and one by one dispute his nonsense.(one example... Samuel Adams barely had a pence... he needed donations from family and friends to purchase some clothing decent enough to attend the convention )The soldiers at Valley Forge disprove his premise sufficiently .
Suffice it to say it is clear he despises the history of this nation and he finds every opportunity to display it.

What do you expect from someone who was educated in SE Asia? He wasn't saluting the flag every morning, and he is a black person, why shouldn't he dispise the history of a nation who mistreated his people. This isn't confined to your country you know, we also have a black population who dispise the history of our nation. It goes with the territory, call it the white man's burden.
You should consider yourselves lucky he hasn't radicalised your nation, just maybe he doesn't dispise it as much as you think he does

He is the progeny of an African man of wealth and influence ,and a white American mother . Who are "his people " ?
His people are supposed to be the American people... all of us.
