The most important thing in my life, the speech of ''Give me liberty or give me death'', calling for a militia for obtaining the independence from Britain. #HistoryatVasco
After my first years as lawyer, I obtained my first important case, The Parson's Cause, a big case to determine the salary of a minister.Arguing that the king has no right to stop a law that has been passed by the people. Though some cry, "Treason!, I win the case #HistoryatVasco
I born in 1736, and this little children wanted to follow the path of the lawyers, because he liked how they debated and for becoming one, at my first career, there wasn't schools for learning and I learned on my own. #HistoryatVasco
Finally, treaty of Paris has been done! After long time fighting with Great Britain, we finally reached an agreement for times of peace and prosperity, also, we are working on the USA constitution, and you know? Soon we will have an special gift from France #HistoryatVasco
I am proud to say everything is ending. Today, we, Americans signed the Preliminary treaties of Peace with the British after a clear debate about the future. Thank you everyone Who contributed in this ๐บ๐ฒ๐

The question before the House is one of awful moment to this country. For my own part, I consider it as nothing less than a question of freedom or slavery; and in proportion to the magnitude of the subject ought to be the freedom of the debate.
No man thinks more highly than I do of the patriotism, as well as abilities, of the very worthy gentlemen who have just addressed the House. But different men often see the same subject in different lights; and, therefore, I hope it will not be thought disrespectful to them.
In 1778 I was chosen again as Governor of Virginia, being the third governor in Virginia, but in 1779 Jefferson was chosen as governor and went again to the house of delegates. #HistoryatVasco
Also, when the Parson Case happened and I made British people pay with money as the law says instead of tobacco making justice for the workers that were protesting

I remember when I fought against the stamp act and Five of my proposals passed by a simple majority, with strong opposition from the House. In the meeting I was called ''traitor'' when they tried to steal us. #HistoryatVasco
The knights may cry Peace, Peace but there is no peace. In fact, war has begun! The next gale from the north will bring to our ears the sound of guns clashing! Our brothers are already in the field! Why stand here idle? What do the knights desire? #HistoryatVasco
Finally we have been listened. I'm proud that I can confirm that we have done the declaration of independence, after fighting so much time, always remember ''LIBERTY OR DEATH'' #HistoryatVasco
