Posted In: Roanoke Tea Party Posts

During the American Revolution, Virginia was always seen as a leader. Without the brilliant written eloquence  of Thomas Jefferson, the iron will and wisdom of George Washington and fiery oratory of Patrick Henry, American independence may never have been won. It’s time once again for Virginians to take the lead in saving our country. The people have already […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
