Nope. Independence Day is a celebration of the Americans who declared independence from Great Britain. Universalizing alleged lessons is a left-wing revolutionary project. https://t.co/vvj9qc31FZ

The single most powerful word in our democracy is the word ‘Republic.’ ‘The Republic for which it stands.’ No, Obama can’t. https://t.co/crOIEWT5EK
