Because, for all the knocks we've taken, despite all the challenges we face, this is still the greatest country on earth. We still have the best workers and farmers, entrepreneurs and businesses, students and scientists. And you can see that here in Alpha. You can see it along the country roads that connect these small towns and farmlands. You know these past few days, I've been seeing little kids with American flags and grandparents in lawn chairs. I've shaken hands with folks outside machine shops and churches, corner stores and farms. It reminds me of why I got into public service in the first place. Getting out of Washington and spending time with the people of this country – seeing how hard you're working, how creative you are, how resourceful you are, how determined you are – that only makes me more determined to serve you as best I can as president. And it only makes me more confident in our future. That's why it's so important that folks in Washington put country before party. That's why it's so important that our elected leaders get past their differences to help grow the economy and put this nation back to work. Because here in Alpha it couldn't be more clear: if we can come together, there's no stopping the United States of America. There's no doubt that our future is bright. Thanks, and have a great weekend.
