Americans...A Free People

The War of Secession from Great Britain (you may call this the Revolutionary War, but it was indeed secession) was based on the idea that our rights of life, liberty and pursuit of happiness (property) comes from our humanity NOT from the government.

This was the American idea.

That we are all created equal in RIGHTS (not equal in material).

For the first time the idea of Nobility was struck down. Nobility was the previous system where men were born with rights over other men.

This appeal to man's logic of the nature of our rights is the Jeffersonian system of a free people that we have come to know as American.

That our populace has this engrained in its history must be carried forward, not dissolved.

This is who we are!

A free people!

Free from the tyranny of the state.
