2008 TV mini-series, “John Adams.”

Thank you! I was having difficulty recalling where I had seen that scene.

I was quite surprised to discover I learned additional information about America's Declaration of Independence from a movie I had no previous interest in. I saw the musical 1776 one evening on television and was impressed.

It actually saddens me when I realize just how uninformed and misinformed many of my fellow citizens are regarding America's history. Perhaps even sadder is that they are not interested.

Glenn Beck's Founders Friday has also been extremely enlightening because of the previously unknown historical information presented.

How many people do you know who are referring to the upcoming national holiday as "The Fourth of July" rather than "Independence Day"?

Someone of my acquaintance who was a visible BO supporter made a point of mentioning that for the "Fourth of July" weekend, he would be out of the country on holiday.
