What you are referring too is the Gettysburg address. But perhaps maybe you haven't heard it all over.
Lincoln explains in his speech that it is the soldiers who have given their lives, and who have fought with such valor in what they believed in, that have hallowed this ground. Soldiers on both sides, as the states which turned against the union, remained as stars on the union flag.
In other words, it is not the piece of paper that hallows the ground. Not the speech or any other source or action. It is the dedication of the men who fought there that hallowed that ground
If you wish to learn more about this, I recommend going to Gettysburg Pennsylvania just as I have. The town features great restaurants and attractions and you can learn so much from the museum and a trip to the battlefield.
Answer:
By acknowledging and learning from the past, we also embrace the present more fully and can shape our future tasks with renewed confidence, passion and commitment. There may well be people whose stories still need to be heard, whose pain needs to be acknowledge.
Benjamin Franklin wrote the letter that had to do with the taxation without representation on 1754 to Governor William Shirley of Massachusetts.
<h3>What is meant by taxation without representation?</h3>
This was the term that was used to refer to the fact that the people on the American colonies were being taxed too much in a government that they were not a part of. They felt that it was unfair that they would be made to pay so much but in the British parliament they had no one that was representing them there.
Hence we would say that the taxation without representation was something that was written in the year 1754.

What is a true statement about the us constitution?....well .... George Washington is not mentioned in the text of the US Constitution, however he was President of the Constitutional Convention, and a signatory to the document. George Washington became President of the United States by election a year after the constitution was ratified.
The oldest constitution still in use is the Constitution of San Marino established in 1600; nearly two centuries before the US constitution. and The US Constitution was inspired in part by the Magna Carta, but is very different in format and detail.
Thomas Jefferson was not a delegate to the Constitutional Convention which wrote the US Constitution; at the time he was the US Ambassador to France so had no part in writing that document..
