On the fiftieth anniversary of the ratification of the Declaration of Independence, the US lost two of the men most responsible for its creation. Independence Day 1826 might be the most important since July 4, 1776.

Ah, if we had more men like these in the halls if congress today. Men of virtue and great moral character and infinite foresight and a never ending love of freedom. Epic job History Guy!

Men of that day spoke SO eloquently. Our public education system has failed so miserably.

It is so sad to see people today who want to smear these men and tear down their statues. But I'm proud to live in a country that calls these men our founding fathers. God bless America!!!

I visited Independence Hall many years ago. The room where these events took place was small compared to the magnitude of what took place there. It is humbling to stand in a place of such great historical significance. By the way, my birthday is just past, so I guess that makes me a niece of Uncle Sam. 😁🇺🇸

Today's video was WONDERFUL, full of detail, with great stirring writing, not unlike the document and the men it describes. Thank You and HAPPY 4th (or 2nd).

Thank you for another appropriate video. The right to be a 'free and independent nation' is still facing challenges 247 years later. Now it is our own internal 'despot want-to-be's' vs one across an ocean. May we all cut through the political/media flack and see what unites us as opposed to what divides us. May we have another 247 years to celebrate our unity. We will not without effort, let's get to work to give our offspring the 'free and independent nation' our Forefathers left for us.

I spend a lot of $2 bills. When people ask me why I say it's because it's just as much fun as $100 bills but 50 times cheaper. I hadn't imagined that I was still handing out "Benjamins" 😎
