Obama‘sWeeklyAddress：CelebratingIndependenceDay
hi, everybody. i hope you're all having a great
fourth of july weekend.
i want to begin today by saying a special word to the
u.s. men’s soccer team, who represented america so well
the past few weeks. we are so proud of you. you’ve got a
lot of new believers. and i know there’s actually a
petition on the white house website to make tim howard
the next secretary of defense. chuck hagel’s got that
spot right now, but if there is a vacancy, i’ll think
about it.
it was 238 years ago that our founders came together
in philadelphia to launch our american experiment. there
were farmers and businessmen, doctors and lawyers,
ministers and a kite-flying scientist.
those early patriots may have come from different
backgrounds and different walks of life. but they were
united by a belief in a simple truth -- that we are all
created equal; that we are all endowed by our creator
with certain inalienable rights; and that among these
rights are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
over the years, that belief has sustained us through
war and depression; peace and prosperity. it’s helped us
1
build the strongest democracy, the greatest middle class,
and the most powerful military the world has ever known.
and today, there isn’t a nation on earth that wouldn’t
gladly trade places with the united states of america.
but our success is only possible because we have
never treated those self-evident truths as self-
executing. generations of americans have marched,
organized, petitioned, fought and even died to extend
those rights to others; to widen the circle of
opportunity for others; and to perfect this union we love
so much.
that’s why i want to say a special thanks to the men
and women of our armed forces and the families who serve
with them -- especially those service members who spent
this most american of holidays serving your country far
from home.
you keep us safe, and you keep the united states of
america a shining beacon of hope for the world. and for
that, you and your families deserve not only the
appreciation of a grateful nation, but our enduring
commitment to serve you as well as you’ve served us.
god bless you all. and have a great weekend.
