Our “unalienable” rights don’t come from God or the government.
Our rights are based on our willingness and capacity to seize them.
We obtain and maintain the rights we have only through collective struggle.

In fact, there's actually no such country as America.
What’s clever about “Together we are America” is that within the US it’s a message of unity but, given the placement in the program following shout-outs to a bunch of countries North and South, outside the US it can be interpreted as “Together we are the Americas.”
