I politely e-mailed her that, as every schoolboy USED to know, the Delaware quarter depicts the ride of Caesar Rodney to Philadelphia to break the deadlock on the vote for Independence.To break that deadlock, Rodney rode eighty miles through a thunderstorm on the night of July 1, 1776, dramatically arriving in Philadelphia "in his boots and spurs" on July 2, just as the voting was beginning.
Michelle never heard of one of the Country's greatest patriots. Read his bio.
