The second one is patriotic and emotional since it defines what an American is using pathos, a rhetorical device that proves a point through emotions. In the excerpt, the speaker appeals to empathy as the main quality of an American.
Number 3 is indignant and intense since the main theme. The excerpt shows how the speaker is angry through the words chosen by him, and it also refers to "us" and "you," and how the group he belongs to is in disadvantage.
Inspiration and motivation are shown in the last excerpt; this is seen in the tone and the semantic field created by the speaker, who also refers to an inmense amount of work that has been done, and this is taken as a motivation to see what may happen in the future if this continues.
