Full disclosure: I found myself struggling to figure out something to do for this year’s Independence Day. Obviously I wanted to do something to honor the United States of America on its birthday. At first I thought it might be a good idea to chronicle how far we’ve come as a nation under President Trump. A deep dive into some of the best of the Trump administration’s policies would be good for the country.

Eventually, however, I decided that I wanted my Independence Day video to be something non-partisan. Trump is a great president, possibly the greatest we’ve ever had, but I didn’t want any message I had to be overshadowed by the politics. After all, the Fourth of July is about the nation coming together for at least one day to celebrate everything that makes this country great.

What better way to celebrate the founding of this great nation with a reading of its founding document, the Declaration of Independence?
