John Adams said that he hoped that every July 4th, Americans would revisit its first principles. Those principles are found in the Declaration of Independence and today we celebrate the 245th anniversary of its signing.

Let this year’s July 4th celebration be mindful rather than mindless. What should we celebrate, and what should we beware of?
