Making America great again!
THIS fourth of July will be the 249th anniversary of the American Declaration of Independence. This majestic Declaration in 1776 emancipated the then 13 British Colonies of North America from the clutches of British colonial domination and constituted them as the United States of America.
The Declaration is believed to be the first formal pronouncement by an organised political community of its right to choose its government. Drafted by Thomas Jefferson (later the third President in 1801), the Declaration consisted of two parts. First, it contained seven stirring principles of the inalienable rights of human beings. Second, it included a specific list of 27 grievances against King George III of England.
