Obama on divisive politics
October 23rd, 2008 | Published in Politics, Videos
This is excellent:
We can’t afford to divide this country…. Let me tell you something… There are no “real” parts of the country and “fake parts of the country.” There are no “pro-America” parts of the country and “anti-America” parts of the country. We all love this country, no matter where we live, or where we come from….
There are patriots who supported the war, and patriots who opposed it. There are patriots who believe in Democratic policies, and those who believe in Republican policies.
[Those who fought in Iraq] have not served a Blue America or a Red America, they served the United States of America. Nobody should forget that.
That’s excellent. I find this far more appealing than calling certain parts of the country “the most pro-America, most pro-God” like McCain did a few days ago.
