OK, another quiz - a little more difficult, but most Brits wouldn't get it....?

...(You did ask, you know).
As you may know by now, the quiz has five questions; answer them all and you should be able to state what connects all five answers:

1. Freedom's Ring?

2. Where Woodward and Bernstein got their start.

3. 'Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today in the sight of God to witness the joining of these two people in holy matrimony ...'

4. Thirteen and fifty, always.

5. Happy Five-O!
 
From the 5 phrases I can relate them to, in no specific order, freedom of speech, active citizenship, right to remain silent, watergate, self-incrimination or lack there-of and other things in relation. so my answer is mildly confident "the first five amendments."
 
The Liberty Bell. (1893) Washington Post. (1889) The Wedding March. (1918) Stars and Stripes Forever. (1896) haven't got a clue! well, he wrote about 200 marches, and other works as well.

1. The Liberty Bell
2. The Washington Post
3. Wedding March
4. Stars and Stripes Forever
5. Golden Jubilee

The connection: these are all works (marches) of John Philip Sousa!

(1,2 and 4 were pretty easy; 3 & 5 had me stumped at first, since I wasn't as familiar with those pieces!)

1. Philadelphia (the liberty bell)
2. Washington (the Washington Post)
3. Massachusetts (or Iowa recently)
4. Colonies and states... but the "always" is confusing me. Stars on the flag?
5. Hawaii

Well, I'm answering, but I'm not sure I got them all right.
