Barack Obama Speech Celebrating Independence Day 4th of July.
Our President Barack Obama commemorates the Independence Day on 4th of July every year, for all Americans from farmers to teachers to serviceman to business man who worked together to make the United States what it is today.On July 4, 1776, we got independence from Britain. Every day thousands leave their country and come here for American Dream.The United States is with a diverse nation with dynamic people.
every year on July 4, US citizens celebrate freedom and independence with fireworks picnics and family celebrations.
President Obama began his Independence Day celebrations by hosting and It was the third time the President has hosted this kind of service, and he told the audience, which included the families of the service members who were taking the oath of citizenship, that it is one of his favorite things to do.
“It brings me great joy and inspiration
because it reminds us that we are a country that is bound together not
simply by ethnicity or bloodlines, but by fidelity to a set of ideas.”
Before the President gave his remarks, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration
Services Director Alejandro Mayorkas presented the countries of the
candidates for naturalization and Secretary of Homeland Security Janet
Napolitano delivered the oath of allegiance. President Obama told the
new citizens that is was an honor to serve as their Commander in Chief,
and to be the first to greet them as
“my fellow Americans.”
With this ceremony today — and ceremonies like it across our country
— we affirm another truth: Our American journey, our success, would simply
not be possible without the generations of immigrants who have come to our
shores from every corner of the globe. We say it so often, we sometimes
forget what it means — we are a nation of immigrants. Unless you are one of
the first Americans, a Native American, we are all descended from folks who
came from someplace else — whether they arrived on the Mayflower or on a
slave ship, whether they came through Ellis Island or crossed the Rio Grande.
Immigrants signed their names to our Declaration and helped win our
independence. Immigrants helped lay the railroads and build our cities,
calloused hand by calloused hand. Immigrants took up arms to preserve
our union, to defeat fascism, and to win a Cold War. Immigrants and their
descendants helped pioneer new industries and fuel our Information Age,
from Google to the iPhone. So the story of immigrants in America isn’t a
story of “them,” it’s a story of “us.” It’s who we are.
