I am fully aware of the critical moments we face as a country.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
We are a vibrant first-world country, but we have a humbling third-world memory.
We are the greatest country in the world but we are facing serious issues.
I am deeply concerned about America.
I think Americans are at our best when we recover from a crisis. We've suffered some blows that other countries would have never recovered from.
I appreciate the fact, and am proud of it, that the attentions I am receiving are intended more for our country than for me personally.
It is in times of great tragedy when the true spirit of our wonderful country unites as one.
America has a critical role to play as the most powerful member of the world community.
I think most Americans understand that we went through a period in which American leadership was judged quite critically internationally.
It is one of the great tragedies of the US, that most learn most of what they know about the government from the government.
We're in an illusion about what our role is in world politics and foreign affairs, and our policies are killing and destroying and doing a lot of things that we are not aware of.
