[applause] happy birthday, america. >> what has america given to you?ven to me a sense of opportunity. you know, i went to west point as a 17-year-old kid and, 39 years later i retired as a major general and it wasn't because of my family connections. it wasn't because of my class standing. it wasn't becauseca of my wealth or my family's wealth. it was just an opportunity to prove myself. i think that what characterizes our whole country. the idea if you work hard, show up u to work on time and do your job, by golly, this society is going to reward you. and it is very, very rare today. >> senator what makes america great? >> the unique aspect of our experiment where people from all over the world could come and they still come to have a better life and the influx of talent and strength and of incredible abilitiess has made this nation the a strongest in the history f the world. >> why did you serve. >> i was tradition in my family but i also, frankly part of it was the excitement of being a navy pilot. part of it was being excitement of flying in combat

i'm very proud of america. july 4th, independence day, america's birthday to celebrate, fox news sent tv crews out across the country to ask the question. why are you proud to be an american? you're going to hear from celebrities on the red carpet and in a ceremony during fleet week, marines and sailors tells why they serve and what makes them proud. contributors will share stories about what america means to them and their families and a memorial day parade with america's big cities and small towns. recent immigrants and people whose families have been here since the first independence day. why they're proud to be american. >> the thing that makes america great are the people. trend mendus spirit and love of the country. >> first country to be founded in the idea that every person was created equal. >> we're all the children of those who risk everything for freedom. i think that is the fundamental dna that units american s. >> at eight years old my doctors took me to hear a speech and said you've got to go her

it created him. >> not god bless america, not damn america. >> european expansion. genocide. >> american foreign policy has been aggressive and imperialistic for a very long time. it was expansionist immediately starting right after the rev laugsary war. >> incredible as it may seem, there are people in america who want a world without america. >> we like to think of ourselves as a peace-loving people. if they said we're going in for the oil, we'd say no, don't do it. instead we say we're going in for democracy. >> would the united states have been a force of good or ill for the people. >> we conquered the vietnamese. we killed a couple million of them. >> m.i.t. professor noam chomsky is a leading criticism of american imperialism. >> there's a reason why most of the world regards the united states as a predatory colonial power. we overthrew the government in 1964, iran in 1963, cuban ba in 1961 and brazil, chile, uruguay, argentina. it's not a pretty record. [ chanting ] >> never had anything like this in the country where we take on economic issues like this. >>

america makes. and, mr. speaker when more things are made in america, more americans will make it in america. when government gets out of the way, we can create thousands of good-paying jobs and a whole lot of affordable reliable, dependable, secure energy. then and only then when more things are made in america, more americans will make it in america. the energy sector is -- as the gentleman said, is one of our nation's leading job creators. and much more can be done to unleash energy in these united states. just look at my home state of texas. texas has been responsible for close to half of all new jobs created in the united states since the end of the recession. texas has allowed the energy industry to flourish, while at the same time protecting the environment. shale gas development, which is booming because of innovations like hydraulic fracturing, horizontal drilling despite this administration, those are leading to billions in new investments in my district alone. billions in my district 14,

north america being important.it were self-evident, he would not have to make such a strong case. no one is making detailed arguments about why it is profitable. it just is. it is consuming a massive amount of energy and attention because it is producing a massive amount of wealth. that would be even more true after the war. the caribbean really is the heart of what the french are trying to defend in the americas. the extent to which they are interested in north america is largely as a way of both buffering against british competition -- which can hurt the caribbean -- and providing potential supply areas or other things. like illinois provided weeks for heat for new orleans. there were various plans for new france and the caribbean. it never worked out because the growing season in quebec is really too short for that to work out. but the center of this war was really about imperial profits. it was about colonial power -- not in the abstract, but the details of finances, colonial wealth. if we step back, we go back

there's no united states of america. i think one of the best you can findt about the battle of trenton -- i tried to include as many accounts as i could from the common soldiers, the men who served under washington -- some of the best words come from captain william hall of the 19th connecticut regiment after the battle of trenton. victory -- he basically writes, what men can't do when engaged in so noble a cause? was a universal feeling, not only washington but his man, and also the people of america. they saw the victory is almost god-given, which reconfirmed to them what they were doing was correct, and they were going on the right course. moral reaffirmation, if you will. sense, what washington want the battle of trenton was america, the dream of the great dream of the shining city on the hill, which was rescued. ,efore the strike on trenton the dream had all but died. i think that is why the battle needed a new look and needed to be presented in a new perspective and to be understood in a new way on multiple levels.

good old america. there are two theories breed one start,l countries rise, have their day, then decline. the other school of thought is that america is exempt from this. we are different. we keep reinventing ourselves because of who we are. in ase we come together different system of government that favors and enshrines, and encourages. risk-taking, personal responsibility. somehow we are exempt from the universal law. i was really a couple of years ago thinking the first version. the rise, shine, decline. that i have any last two years come to think that maybe we are the exception. here's why. not because as you would listen to republicans, some during the last presidential cycle, when they would stand up and say who believes in america exceptionalism and they would all say i believe. iike peter pan, think nkerbell comes back to life. there is factual basis. fracking, you are at the forefront of this. we have in the last 3-5 years, the united states and americans, we have developed the technology to l
