We hold the truths enshrined by the American Revolution to be self-evident, not just for us, but for all of mankind. However, our Founders never said those truths would be easy to embrace. On the contrary, they wrote often of the urgent need for people of character, both in the halls of government and the great open fields of citizenship. Those modern readers who are dismayed by the religious language they used are foolishly discounting priceless wisdom, and failing to appreciate the value of humility as a republican virtue. The truly great leaders of a free people are humble men and women. Those are really hard to come by. Intelligence, passion, and charisma are in greater supply, and they are far more easily demonstrated. Revolutions are more common than Washingtons. This Independence Day, let us wish the Egyptians well in their search for humble and capable leadership. Let us join them.---Human Events ~~Praying for leaders of character this Independence Day!~~VWNurseBenghazi
