Imagine: a single day when all the noise stops, when there is no back and forth between your uncle and cousin on Facebook, no CNN on airport televisions, no Fox News alert on your phone. Imagine candidates and pundits dropping politics for a full 24 hours.

Would you be surprised to learn that 70% of Americans support a national unity day, according to a poll commissioned by FreedomWorks? It would be a single day where media, candidates, and all other political organizations would be asked to stop talking about politics voluntarily for a full day; a day where we pause politics in order to celebrate our country.
