    The answer is "He diminishes the importance of his past, reinforcing the idea that they are all Americans now." The excerpt is entitled "Give me Liberty or Give me Death!". This is all about fighting for the freedom of America from the British colonizers. This is to pursuade the listeners to fight for their country as soon as possible.
