I think what’s unique about America is that
it’s a country founded on principles of
00:00:05.012,00:00:09.092
bringing people together from disparate
backgrounds —
00:00:09.092,00:00:13.079
your tired, your hungry and your poor — and
making them — and having
00:00:13.079,00:00:18.000
their experiences make up what it means to be
American.
00:00:18.000,00:00:23.004
In that sense it’s unlike any other country.
It’s a country whose values I feel
00:00:23.004,00:00:25.062
are made up of the people who live here,
00:00:25.062,00:00:35.042
and the people who came here. And in that sense
we have the ability to keep — to keep
identifying
00:00:35.042,00:00:38.096
what it is to be American on a daily basis; it
continues to change.
