“All
eyes are opened, or opening to the rights of man. The general spread of the
light of science has already laid open to every view the palpable truth that
the mass of mankind has not been born, with saddles on their backs, nor a
favored few booted and spurred, ready to ride them legitimately by the grace of
god. These are grounds of hope for
others. For ourselves let the annual
return of this day, forever refresh our recollections of these rights and an
undiminished devotion to them.”
Thomas Jefferson
3rd President of the
United States
July 4, 1826 (50th
anniversary)
“We enjoy the hotdogs, the burgers, the
fireworks. But it’s important to remember what a miracle this country is. How incredibly lucky we are that people,
generations ago, were willing to fight for our freedom. And then people inside this country … kept
fighting to extend that freedom to all people, and not just some.”
Barrack Obama
44th President of the
United States
July 4, 2016 (241st
anniversary)
"Getting
ready to celebrate the 4th of July with a big crowd at the White House. Happy
4th to everyone. Our country will grow and prosper!"
Donald J. Trump

President of the United States
