what America does for itself has made it strong--but what America does for others has made it great.
We are heartbroken by the loss of life and the agony so many are feeling.
The American economy has consistently proven its strength and resilience in the face of shocks such as natural disasters...
This is not mere nostalgia, it is the truest version of ourselves.
