 Here in America, we will have a government of the people, by the people, and for the people. Regardless of whether you're male or female, it doesn't matter if you're gay or straight, it doesn't matter if you're black or white or Asian or Indian, or any other ethnic group. It doesn't matter what your country of origin is, or the spelling of your last name. It does not matter if you're a Catholic or Protestant Muslim or Jew, and it doesn't matter if you don't believe it all. It does not matter if you're rich or poor or common or famous. In this country, in these United States, under those colors of red, white, and blue, in this country all Americans are created free and equal. And we will rise or fall based on our merit, and we'll be judged by the content of our character, not the color of our skin. That is the poor organizing principle of the United States of America, and that is why we fight.
