  Wonderful! Sweet to listen to. My kids and I are listening this morning. What a great way to spend the morning before the celebration of Independence Day. Thank you so much for this holiday gift.

  Gives me chills it’s so good! Note: On Wednesday Nampa, ID had it’s 43rd ‘God and Country Festival’ which has always had a military flyby right after the pledge of allegance to the American flag. This year the request went to the Pentagon for permission which denied the request (first time after 42 years) because God was mentioned on the web page. Very, very sad that even though many young kids were sworn in to serve our country at this festival that the Pentagon would turn away. http://godandcountryfestival.com/

  A messege from the president:

  This weekend, our family will join millions of others in celebrating America. We will enjoy the glow of fireworks, the taste of barbeque, and the company of good friends. As we all celebrate this weekend, let’s also remember the remarkable story that led to this day.

  Two hundred and thirty-three years ago, our nation was born when a courageous group of patriots pledged their lives, fortunes, and sacred honor to the proposition that all of us were created equal.

  Our country began as a unique experiment in liberty — a bold, evolving quest to achieve a more perfect union. And in every generation, another courageous group of patriots has taken us one step closer to fully realizing the dream our founders enshrined on that great day.

  Today, all Americans have a hard-fought birthright to a freedom which enables each of us, no matter our views or background, to help set our nation’s course. America’s greatness has always depended on her citizens embracing that freedom — and fulfilling the duty that comes with it.

  As free people, we must each take the challenges and opportunities that face this nation as our own. As long as some Americans still must struggle, none of us can be fully content. And as America comes ever closer to achieving the perfect Union our founders dreamed, that triumph — that pride — belongs to all of us.

  So today is a day to reflect on our independence, and the sacrifice of our troops standing in harm’s way to preserve and protect it. It is a day to celebrate all that America is. And today is a time to aspire toward all we can still become.

  With very best wishes,

  President Barack Obama
