I've watched these reporter segments where they go to New York City or selected College campuses and interview various people asking them questions about who is the Vice President or questions about our Nation such as what is the Constitution or other questions that most Americans should know.
Here we have people that are voting and have the ability to elect a President yet so any can't ask basic questions ask them about our Nation. That said I wanted to pose the following question.
What is Memorial Day? Why do we celebrate it and what distinguishes it from Veteran's day?
Could you answer that question? How many ordinary citizens or even how many High School or even College graduates could answer it?
Memorial Day is the day we celebrate all those who DIED to secure and keep our freedoms in place. It differs from Veteran's day in that Veteran's day we celebrate and remember all Veterans, alive and dead but Memorial Day is to remember those who have DIED to secure our freedoms and to keep our freedoms. How many do you believe would know this?
