Clip from "John Adams" episode 2, "Independence". The 2nd Continental Congress votes in favor of declaring independence from Great Britain, and the declaration is read throughout the colonies.

I like that they showed Dickinson in uniform and on horseback. He didn't support Independence, but he did put his life on the line for it when it became a fact.

Dont thank France. Thank Austria or Prussia. Without one of them distracting France, Britain had to keep significant forces at home to defend against Franco-Spanish invasion. Because Britain was only a naval power with 10 million people. It needed a continental power to do most of the dying in Europe.

It wasn't "god" who saved our American states. It was the French (who now are scoffed at by imbeciles as 'surrenderers', thanks to WWII). Thank you, France. We'll always owe you big time!

Yes this is why we shouldn’t look our noses down on the French because they helped us
