From the archives: Barack Obama delivers one of his most memorable speeches at 2004 DNC

Barack Obama, who was the Illinois Democratic Senate candidate at the time, delivered the keynote address at the 2004 Democratic National Convention, catapulting him into the spotlight. Obama famously said in the speech on July 27, 2004, "There's not a liberal America and a conservative America, there's the United States of America. There's not a Black America and White America and Latino America and Asian America, there's the United States of America."
