Did you tell the grandkids the history of Independence Day? It is never too early to let them know what freedom from a foreign power means. Also, as they get older and can understand more, what the Revolutionary War and War of 1812 meant for the USA.

Patriotism is not just putting an American flag on your golf cart. It also means living up to the words on the Statue of Liberty. If those words mean nothing now, the statue should be taken down and destroyed.
