Sometimes it feels like it’s getting more and more difficult to be proud of America, but for the true patriots among us, the believers in truth and honor and integrity, this remains a very great country, of which I will always be proud. America is an idea – the abstract but awe-inspiring idea of freedom – and that cannot be ruled or ruined by one small-handed man. Instead, our country will rise above, as it has time and time again. All of us stumble and fumble at some point in our lives, and most countries are the same way. We will be better than we were before. We have to be.
Until then, I give you Captain America. The world is in need of a hero.
