text: The story of the NPR tweeting the Declaration of Independence is a sad one. That people cannot recognize this as our nation's charter is a result of poor education systems and willful ignorance of history.
  In the Sixties there was similar experiment where people took the declaration to the streets on the 4th of July and asked people to sign it.  Many responded with anger that hippies and war protestors were wanting to destroy the United States. Sad.
