Who Invented the United States of America?

from Spacesuit Made of Flesh · host Mayasonette Lambkiss

WHO INVENTED THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA?Authored and Read by Mayasonette Lambkisson 12/16/2023 in HawaiiI find the most remarkable value the Declaration of Independence humbly reveals and gently teaches to its admirers is in the power of wording. And thus, the first value I regard as the most powerful value is revealed here to only increase over time as the value the modern American people grade the highest: It is intentional and mindful wording in order to create. The Founding Fathers chose to sign a Declaration of Independence and not a Declaration of War against the English king, though those two were likely to be the same if the British doesn't back off. Thomas Jefferson had a great deal to do with the choices made in the content of this iconic document. Its every word is powerfully placed in the context and reveals authority produced by a systematic ascension of thoughts. Beautiful example of the most touching American value as a rockstar among the values: DIRECTNESS which we could define is respecting RESPECT. In the published article 'SO, YOU’RE AN AMERICAN?”: A GUIDE TO ANSWERING DIFFICULT QUESTIONS ABROAD' the CULTURE magazine writes timeless statements: "A direct communicator doesn’t intend to be rude, but rather desires clarity and speed. Conversely, Americans may consider indirect or subtler forms of communication to be incomplete, dishonest, or insincere." "Many Americans will not necessarily shy away from conflict if they feel it will help them reach their objectives, even if it creates disharmony". "The Declaration of Independence is divided into five parts: the preamble, the statement of philosophy, the grievances, the operative words, and the statement of the signers." (By: Rob Natelson|Published on: Nov 27, 2021|Categories: Declaration of Independence, Founding Principles)The Declaration is a legal document, and as such has the structure of a legal document. The preamble states who are writing it, by what authority, and makes a statement for the end-product as well: "The unanimous Declaration of the thirteen United States of America," The Values it highlights are Universality, unanimity, united front. Though the document is written for the separation of England and the colonies, it speaks about a fundamental and universal truth that unites the 13 states, (and later perhaps the entire world as it has served profound inspiration for the United Nations' Universal Declaration of Human Rights document.) While it is ancient knowledge that our shared enemies unite us, the intense and expressive united front on the matter to expel the English is still remarkable. It is not easy task to get 13 sets of leaderships to agree on anything unanimously. Especially impressive how they address their petition to a supreme and objective judge and witness to be understood and appeal their cause. Today's politicians have a great example to live up to, and without doubt, often fail to achieve these values they most certainly strive for. I see another incredibly important modern American value stepping in view at this point too: Generosity. It is not an overstatement at all to say that the American people are the most generous country anywhere in the world...
