Why is it so hard for some Americans to understand? It seems fairly straightforward to me:

"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty & the pursuit of Happiness. That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed. That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, & to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles & organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety & Happiness."

I am going to spend this holiday in the manner of Tab Hunter & Roddy McDowell... with coke, I mean cock, I mean cake & wieners. Happy Independence Day!
