00:00:06,900 --> 00:00:09,600
Although much has happened this past year 
in America,

2
00:00:09,700 --> 00:00:16,700
the core of who we are as a nation has not 
changed. America was built on the foundation 
of life,

3
00:00:16,800 --> 00:00:20,100
liberty, and the pursuit of happiness for 
all.

4
00:00:20,200 --> 00:00:25,500
Everyone has opinions for how this should 
be done, but as Chip Gaines stated,

5
00:00:25,600 --> 00:00:29,100
“Disagreement is not the same thing as hate. 
…

6
00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:34,000
If there’s any hope for all of us to move 
forward, to heal and to grow—

7
00:00:34,100 --> 00:00:40,300
we have got to learn to engage people who 
are different from us with dignity and with 
love.”

8
00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:46,000
Today, as we celebrate our nation’s independence, 
pursue peace with others,

9
00:00:46,100 --> 00:00:52,600
celebrate our God-given freedoms, and be 
grateful for all who have brought us to this 
place.

00:00:52,700 --> 00:00:55,200
