OUR DAY OF DELIVERANCE
November 4th, 2008 will forever be celebrated as Dependence Day. It will be commemorated as our Day of deliverance. It will be solemnized with pomp and parade, with shows, games, bells, bonfires and illuminations, from one end of this continent to the other, from this time forward. Thank you Mr. Obama for giving us our Dependence, we are forever grateful.

The Farmer Refuted, The Works of Alexander Hamilton, ed. John C. Hamilton, vol. 2, p. 80
Let us not be unmindful that liberty is power; that the nation blessed with the largest portion of liberty must in proportion to its numbers be the most powerful na
