An Independence Day Thought

“The will of the people is the only legitimate foundation of any government, and to protect its free expression should be

our first object.”

Thomas Jefferson 1743 - 1826, 3rd US President

Principal Author of the Declaration of Independence

 

As I see it . . . . . . .

An Independence Day thought

 

People in American . . . . can agree . . . . they can disagree . . . . and they can express their options.

 

As Americans we have the freedom and the choice to agree or disagree.

 

There are some people that we disagree with sometimes . . . . and there are others that we disagree with all the time . . . . What is unique in America is the freedom of speech . . . . giving the person the right to speak no matter if we agree with them  . . . . or we don’t.

 

A person’s free expression as been the foundation of America for over 240 hundred years . . . . and with good leadership it will remain for  hundreds of more years.

 

A Independence Day thought . . . .  a person’s ability to have free expression is to hear . . . . and see things from different points of views.

Having the freedom of free expression is indeed what makes America great - I hope that those who lead our Country in the future don't try to take that freedom away.

Hi Lou Ludwig Anybody who has read Thomas Jefferson would be really surprised by his attitude towards government.

I hope you are enjoying your Fourth.

You can disagree with people without being disagreeable. Our country has lost it's way in that respect.

Hi Lou Ludwig ,  Your blog reminds me of Active Rain.  Because of our great country, we are able to have things like AR to have conversations and to agree and disagree.
