when disaster strikes, America is the first country to come to the aid of other countries around the world, and I am very proud of that, I am very proud of that fact, but when you see disasters strike the people in your neighborhood and your friends and relatives and you know that we are sometimes doing more for people we don't even know, sometimes countries that don't even like us than we are for Americans, I just believe that we should take care of Americans first.
