To put this yet more plainly, what makes America unique is not just the ideas that America upholds, but the courage and backbone of the American people needed to make those ideas reality.
America is a nation comprised of people adventurous and competent enough to cross the ocean, build a civilization from scratch amidst the brutal wilderness, and shake off the shackles of the British crown in pursuit of life, liberty, and happiness.
You can hold these ideas in any part of the world, but only in America will you find a people ready and willing to die to uphold them.
