I don't doubt for a second that Neil Armstrong's spirit is still with us: that unique blend of optimism, humility and the utter confidence that when the world needs someone to do the really big stuff, you need an American.

I don't mind that people have questions and would look for someone to respond to their questions, particularly if their faith is not terribly well-known.

The soles of Neil Armstrong's boots on the moon made permanent impressions on our souls and in our national psyche. Ann and I watched those steps together on her parent's sofa. Like all Americans we went to bed that night knowing we lived in the greatest country in the history of the world. God bless Neil Armstrong.

In recent years, we have seen the United States back away from pressuring the Castro regime, under the misguided view that placating them with an open hand would yield progress. That naivete has invited only more cruelty and oppression in return.

I don't want to be like Europe. I want to be like America.

Announcing a withdrawal date, that was wrong. The Taliban may not have watches, but they do have calendars.

Ok to appoint atheists or agnostics-no litmus test of faith.
