Remarks by the President at 4th of July Celebration [white house press office]And today we remember names like Washington, Adams, Jefferson, and Franklin. We honor their courage and we honor their vision on the 4th of July. We’re thankful that this nation they created 228 years ago remains free and independent and the best hope for all mankind.
Today is the day we gather with our friends and family and give thanks to the United States of America; give thanks to the fact that we are citizens in a free land.
