Jazz, baseball, the PC, hickory-smoked ribs, rock'n'roll, the light bulb, the Chevy Camaro, the string bikini, the twelve-pack, "America the Beautiful", Stagger Lee, big box retailers, Mark Twain, Port Brewing Company, John Wayne, Christmas morning, side one of the Pretenders first album, the sweet spot, hands-free dialing, the Battle of New Orleans, 4th of July fireworks, Irving Berlin and Ray Charles, Shazam, the Kentucky Derby, the Bill of Rights, Abraham, Martin and John, deep-fried turkey, the Pacific at sunset and the Grand Canyon at sunrise, New Year's Day bowl games, Chick Hearn and Vin Scully and the peddle steel guitar... American originals, all.
And in that spirit of innovation, vitality, rebellion, creativity and American exceptionalism and in honor of one of the most idiotic statements ever made, we bring you an undeniable force of nature, an act of God, a force majeure that could only happen here in America.
Ladies and Gentlemen, it's the hardest working man in show business, Mr. James Brown, performing "Sex Machine" and "Get on the Good Foot".
