Truth is so much more amazing than fiction. For those unfamiliar with American history please click [show more] below.
This video begins with vintage pictures of the American colonists' domestic life -- circa 1776. Next, mother country England imposes its tyranical decrees: the *Stamp Act* and the *Tea Tax*. Next, the colonists' violent rebellions in Boston, followed by the writing of the *Declaration of Independence* by John Adams, Thomas Jefferson and Benjamin Franklin. And finally a war against England led by George Washington. The pivotal point of the war was the crossing of the Delaware River at night for a successful sneak attack on the enemy in the early morning. With the help of the French the war is finally won, and so is the Founding Fathers' vision of an independent Constitutional Republic.

  • america is a country of slavers

  • @TheCountCrumpet - yeah, well the problem is, too many Americans like it that way. Let's hope they change their minds before the upcoming election.

  • Hey Lisa, I saw that you also watched the 1-hour interview of Ron Paul! He's a great guy. We all have to vote in Iowa to make him a president!

  • @randomrandom744 -- yes I wish I lived in Iowa or New Hampshire and could vote for him in the primaries. But he's going to do very well there anyway. He'll probably even win in Iowa! Let's hope...
