The Declaration of Independence [video]
source: http://scienceblogs.com/grrlscientist/2009/07/the_declaration_of_independenc.php
Our nation was born with a single document -- the Declaration of Independence. Have you actually read it? Few people get beyond "... Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness." But it really is fascinating. It lays out all the justifications for separation from Great Britain. And it clearly states the founding ideals. In this video, you'll get a chance to hear the entire document read by some of Hollywood's A-list celebrities. But the words are the real stars. It's not a perfect document. But it is one of history's most important.
