Happy Birthday America!

Fun Independence day facts:
1. Even though it’s a national holiday, the Founders had to work on it. (It’s on the Declaration of Independence!)
2. United States’ sovereignty wasn’t recognized until the Treaty of Paris on September 3, 1783 - so that should be a holiday too.
3. It didn’t take effect until May 12, 1784…we’re only 232 years old, not 240. We’ve been lying about our age for two centuries!
4. Jesus wrote the Constitution…that’s why he’s never mentioned in it…didn’t like talking about himself.

5. Americans are so fond of their constitution that they elected a constitutional scholar to the Presidency…twice even.
