My Fellow Americans,
Today, I wish us a happy 240th
birthday. We’ve been beaten and worn for some time now, but never forget that through
the rockets’ red glare and bombs bursting in air, our flag, Old Glory still waves.
In spite of all our faults and flaws, we the people
of the United States of America have much to be grateful for today. We have
traveled a long journey together, and face an unknown future together. Over the centuries, we have
come from lands all around the world to meet here, together
on this day in history – our 240th birthday.
Choose to celebrate! Choose to celebrate America
the Beautiful! Choose to celebrate the Grand Old Flag! Choose to celebrate;
because This Land is Your Land, This Land is My Land! Choose to celebrate Stars
and Stripes Forever!
Choose to celebrate you and me and us! It is the
people who comprise a nation. Each of us should not forget from where it is we
have come. We should be grateful for the independence we share from tyranny,
dictatorships, monarchies and all the likes of that.
Happy birthday to us!
