Dr. Rand Paul put on a show of sorts celebrating Independence Day earlier on Twitter …
I thought I'd join everyone celebrating #IndependenceDay with some thoughts, words and music. Happy 4th of July!

He shared some thoughts …
Freedom is something we must fight for and be vigilant to protect. 240 years ago a document was signed that made the case for Freedom.

He encouraged us to read the Declaration of Independence.
So let's start with something simple but important, and re-read the Declaration of Independence: https://t.co/hTtcVdtlqu

uh it’s a holiday teach, you can’t make us read!

Whiners gonna whine.
Let's move on now to the author, as he wished to be remembered, with Jefferson's autobiography: https://t.co/tZgZEKRHhM

So there were thoughts … there were words …
There's a lot of patriotic music out there and that's great, because we should all celebrate our country and our freedom on #IndependenceDay

And there were jams. Several of them.
This song that talks of a hard-fought love for country. Just because it isn't perfect doesn't mean it isn't great: https://t.co/VWH5iY8OEy

On a day when many Leftists were on Twitter talking about how America was never great, this was a welcome distraction.
Let's remember those who fought to make America a country w/ "treasures for the taking for any hard working man" https://t.co/342t7TTiBU

Americans as a rule are hard working, great song.
For my next song let's take a listen to some revolutionary music from Metallica, Don't Tread on Me https://t.co/DkD7TPhcKv #IndependenceDay

Don’t tread on me … cue head banging.
Our rights come from our Creator, not government. Government is set to secure these rights. We're born free: https://t.co/kSO0PbmHG2

Excellent reminder, our rights are not granted by any government but they are inherent from our Creator. And this song rocks, just sayin’…
Let's finish up this morning with an instrumental version of the Star Spangled Banner, by Jimi Hendrix. Turn it up. https://t.co/QGtwBc1s5g

Timeless.
Let's continue celebrating #FourthofJuly w/ the greatest rendition of America the Beautiful, by Ray Charles https://t.co/CTN3jI6l1P
