A very interesting read for the 4th. I would dare say that your number of people who have actually read the Declaration of Independence may be a little low. How many folks are functionally illiterate through no fault of their own by falling through the educational cracks? My husband was a retired teacher who gave online remedial lessons to students in Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia, and Connecticut. He was appalled by the quality of education folks were receiving in the public education systems of these states. I can understand and support homeschooling.
