[last lines] Barack Obama (on TV):
[on TV delivering his election victory speech]
... to reclaim the American dream and reaffirm that fundamental truth that out of many, we are one. Driver:
You hear that line? Line's for you. Jackie Cogan:
Don't make me laugh. We're one people. It's a myth created by Thomas Jefferson. Driver:
Oh, now you're gonna have a go at Jefferson, huh? Jackie Cogan:
My friend, Jefferson's an American saint because he wrote the words, "All men are created equal." Words he clearly didn't believe, since he allowed his own children to live in slavery. He was a rich wine snob who was sick of paying taxes to the Brits. So yeah, he wrote some lovely words and aroused the rabble, and they went out and died for those words, while he sat back and drank his wine and fucked his slave girl. This guy wants to tell me we're living in a community. Don't make me laugh. I'm living in America, and in America, you're on your own. America's not a country. It's just a business. Now fucking pay me
