TODAY IS NOT JUST ANY FOURTH OF JULY.
LOOK CLOSELY: THE UNITED STATES ARE CELEBRATING THEIR SEMI-QUINCENTENNIAL!
TWO AND A HALF CENTURIES OF HISTORY, OF CHALLENGES, OF PASSION, AND OF GREATNESS.
IT’S A QUARTER OF A MILLENNIUM. ABSOLUTELY CRAZY!
FROM PHILADELPHIA TO WASHINGTON, THE WHOLE COUNTRY IS CATCHING FIRE.
AND THE PROGRAM FOR THIS HISTORIC DAY IS COMPLETELY OVER THE TOP.
IN THE CAPITAL, IN WASHINGTON D.C., THEY ARE PREPARING THE BIGGEST FIREWORKS SHOW EVER FIRED IN THE NATION'S HISTORY.
A MONUMENTAL PYROTECHNIC SHOW THAT IS GOING TO PUSH ALL BOUNDARIES.
ALL OVER THE COUNTRY, THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF GIANT OUTDOOR CONCERTS, HISTORIC PARADES, AND UNIQUE FESTIVALS.
BARBECUES ARE SMOKING, FLAGS ARE WAVING, AND THE EXCITEMENT IS ABSOLUTELY EVERYWHERE.
BUT BEYOND THE PARTY AND THE SHOW, TAKING THE TIME TO LOOK AT HOW IT ALL STARTED REALLY SETS THE STAGE.
FLASHBACK TO SEVENTEEN-SEVENTY-SIX.
THIRTEEN COLONIES DECIDED TO TAKE THEIR DESTINY INTO THEIR OWN HANDS AND BREAK THE CHAINS.
THAT WAS THE BIRTH OF THE DECLARATION OF INDEPENDANCE, WRITTEN BY THOMAS JEFFERSON.
A FOUNDING TEXT THAT PROCLAIMS INALIENABLE RIGHTS: LIFE, LIBERTY, AND THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS.
A FEW YEARS LATER, THESE PIONEERS WENT FURTHER BY CREATING THE CONSTITUTION.
AND ABOVE ALL, WHAT MAKES THE HEART AND SOUL OF THIS NATION: THE VERY FIRST ARTICLES OF THE BILL OF RIGHTS.
THE FIRST AMENDMENT IS THE ABSOLUTE PILLAR OF THEIR SOCIETY.
IT GUARANTEES THE MOST TOTAL FREEDOM OF SPEECH. THE RIGHT TO DEBATE AND SAY WHAT YOU THINK, WITHOUT ANY FILTER.
IT ALSO GUARANTEES FREEDOM OF RELIGION. EVERYONE IS FREE TO LIVE THEIR FAITH AND THEIR TRADITIONAL VALUES WITHOUT PRESSURE.
IT IS THIS ANCHOR IN THE RESPECT FOR INDIVIDUAL LIBERTIES THAT MADE THE CREATIVE POWER OF THIS COUNTRY.
WHETHER YOU LOVE IT OR NOT, THIS NATION HAS AN ENERGY AND A MODEL THAT IS UNIQUE IN THE WORLD.
IT IS THE COUNTRY WHERE MERIT, HARD WORK, AND ENTREPRENEURSHIP HAVE ALWAYS BEEN ENCOURAGED.
A MODEL WHERE THE INDIVIDUAL OFTEN REMAINS THE MASTER OF THEIR DESTINY AND OF THEIR CHILDREN'S EDUCATION.
TAKE THE EXAMPLE OF FLORIDA, WHICH HAS BEEN MAKING A LOT OF NOISE THESE PAST FEW YEARS.
OVER THERE, POLITICS AND THE STATE MUST RESPECT A CLEAR LINE IN SCHOOLS.
THE STATE CANNOT GO AND IMPOSE IDEOLOGICAL PROGRAMS OR BOOKS WITHOUT THE CONSENT OF COMMUNITIES AND PARENTS.
THERE IS A VERY STRONG WILL TO PRESERVE SCHOOL NEUTRALITY.
CHILDREN ARE THERE TO LEARN THE BASICS, TO BUILD THEMSELVES THROUGH HARD WORK, WITHOUT SUBMITTING TO OUTSIDE PRESSURES.
IT IS A TRADITIONAL, HEALTHY FRAMEWORK FOCUSED ON MERIT THAT ENDURES IN MANY AMERICAN REGIONS.
IT IS FOR ALL THESE REASONS THAT THIS TWO-HUNDRED-AND-FIFTIETH ANNIVERSARY IS SO FASCINATING TO WATCH.
SO TODAY, ON THIS QUARTER-MILLENNIUM DAY, THE EXCITEMENT IS AT AN ALL-TIME HIGH.
LET'S TOAST TO THIS HISTORIC MOMENT!
HAPPY TWO-HUNDRED-AND-FIFTIETH BIRTHDAY TO THE UNITED STATES!
BUT WAIT... THE PARTY DOES NOT STOP THERE FOR US TONIGHT!
THERE IS ANOTHER MAJOR EVENT THAT IS GOING TO MAKE THE HEARTS OF SPORTS FANS BEAT FASTER.
AND THE COINCIDENCE IS JUST INCREDIBLE.
TONIGHT, HEADING TO THE PITCH FOR THE ROUND OF SIXTEEN OF THE WORLD CUP!
OUR FRENCH TEAM IS FACING PARAGUAY!
AND DO YOU KNOW WHERE THIS CRUCIAL MATCH IS BEING PLAYED?
IN PHILADELPHIA! THE VERY PLACE WHERE THE DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE WAS SIGNED TWO HUNDRED AND FIFTY YEARS AGO!
HISTORY CROSSES PATHS, SPORT JOINS THE LEGEND THIS FOURTH OF JULY.
SO TONIGHT, WE WILL ALL BE BEHIND THE BLEUS TO GO GET THAT QUALIFICATION FOR THE QUARTER-FINALS!
TWO REASONS TO CELEBRATE, TWO REASONS TO BE THRILLED TODAY.
LEAVE ME YOUR PREDICTIONS IN THE COMMENTS FOR TONIGHT'S MATCH!
ALLEZ LES BLEUS, AND HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY TO THE UNITED STATES!
