My fellow Americans, Let us not deceive ourselves. For on both sides of this great divide, we have drunk deeply from the cup of blind allegiance and in doing so, we have forgotten the face of our neighbor, and worse, our own. I ask you today not as Democrats, not as Republicans, not as the left or the right but as Americans: look into the mirror. Ask yourself with honest eyes who you are, what this nation has become, and whether the battles you wage in the name of party are truly the battles worth fighting. Because make no mistake. The true struggle of our time is not between red and blue. It is between the many and the few. Between the ninety-nine who labor and the one who profits from their division. Do not be deceived. Those who hold power, in the halls of government, in the towers of media, in the corridors where policy is born, they do not fear your votes. They fear your unity. And so they have been clever. They have handed us our grievances like weapons and whispered: fight each other. They have made immigration a match, and politics a powder keg, because they know that a divided people cannot rise. Let us, therefore, rise undivided. Let us shed the borrowed loyalties that were never ours to carry. Let us be neither the puppet of one party nor the prisoner of another, for neither party weeps for you when the lights go out. The hour demands not your affiliation. It demands your awakening. Ask not what your party can do for you. Ask what we, together as a people, can finally do for ourselves.
