  Both Pierre and Jorge are right, of course, about "la".  It can name
something that shares the same name the country (e.g. the band America),
and lo would definitely be correct if you wanted to unambiguously state
you are talking about the country.  "le" would be useful if, for
example, as a talk show host, you really mean "that portion of the
country that agrees with me, the rest of which isn't really America".  I
retract my previous statement.
