A quote from John Quincy Adams:
"The whole continent of North America appears to be destined by Divine Providence to be peopled by one nation, speaking one language, professing one general system of religious and political principles, and accustomed to one general tenor of social usages and customs. For the common happiness of them all, for their peace and prosperity, I believe it is indispensable that they should be associated in one federal Union." Now does this represent all white Americans? It's hard to say, but it reflects the sentiments of one of the leaders of the U.S.
