in 2016 the bi-partisan committee for U.S. Semi quincentennial Commission was set up

But of course they were not good enough (cough cough) for the current President. And now we have this tacky fair thing, that was half ass set up so that he can give a campaign speech for what?? I remember clearly the 200th , I was in my 20's and it was wonderful.. This one is .. I am not sure.. but I am going to try and separate the politics out of this, and have my family over and we all go to the band concert and fireworks the evening of 4th...

We are by no means a perfect union, but it is something we continually strive to be.. It is always 2 steps forward then 1 step back.. I love my country. I am here for work on our imperfections and to acknowledge the missteps we have had, and to look for a ever brightening future. I will fly my American flag with love for a nation that keeps on trying to be better.
