Roots of Democracy in Philadelphia

During the halftime show on the evening 9/11/11 ESPN commentator Chris Berman was reviewing the day's NFL scores. He concluded his report by saying, "Of course there is one team we all root for and it's the greatest team ever assembled".  He was speaking about the USA.

Our experiment in democracy was never tried the same way before nor has it ever been accurately replicated. What makes our country great? How is Philadelphia part of our greatness?

Write a paragraph or more explaining how our trip to Philadelphia to see the National Constitution Center, Liberty Bell and Independence Hall, helped you gain a better understanding of our democracy and/or our country.
