"Now even as we speak, there are those who are preparing to divide us, the spin masters and negative ad peddlers who embrace the politics of anything goes.
Well, I say to them tonight, there's not a liberal America and a conservative America; there's the United States of America.
(APPLAUSE)
There's not a black America and white America and Latino America and Asian America; there's the United States of America.
(APPLAUSE)
The pundits, the pundits like to slice and dice our country into red states and blue States: red states for Republicans, blue States for Democrats. But I've got news for them, too. We worship an awesome God in the blue states, and we don't like federal agents poking around our libraries in the red states.
We coach little league in the blue states and, yes, we've got some gay friends in the red states.
(APPLAUSE)
There are patriots who opposed the war in Iraq, and there are patriots who supported the war in Iraq.
We are one people, all of us pledging allegiance to the stars and stripes, all of us defending the United States of America."

In this passage Obama is trying to make the point that even though America is a very diverse country it is still a country untied. He says how people try to divide the country or segregate it by who is who and who believes in what but he is saying no matter what people believe in, what they support, or who they are, they are all still one, apart of the same country, brothers and sisters. I liked this part of his speech but as he says, many don't see the country as THE UNITED states of America. Many just see themselves and who they consider "their people" and the rest are just outsiders. It should not be like that. It would be nice if the country was really united as he says it to be and if all the people of America felt the same way.
