You really expect Americans to keep track of what or who or why they're celebrating? Most people can't even tell you what president's birthdays are honored on President's Day. We also celebrate Cinco De Mayo--and I ask you, why? Not even all of Mexico recognizes this holiday. Eh. Give an American an excuse to party, and...that's exactly what they'll do.

(the above is meant in a satirical fashion and not to be taken to offense. I hate disclaimers, but not as much as I hate the toneless quality that many things have online. Anyway.)
