Fifty years ago today, hundreds of millions of people around the world watched as an incredible team of Americans put three astronauts on the moon.

In every corner of our country, Americans gathered together -- in front of our televisions, pulled over on the side of the road, in parks and on rooftops, ears pressed to our radios. For a moment, we all held our breath together, knowing we were about to bear witness to a first for mankind.

In that moment, we weren't thinking about being Democrats or Republicans. We weren't thinking about a way to contort the nation's victory in favor of one political faction or another. We were in that moment, quite simply, Americans -- joined together in our wonder, awe, and shared humanity.

This is what we're capable of doing when we choose to work together -- when we come together in service of something larger than ourselves.

If that's the America you believe in, then chip in and let's build it together.

That's the America I have faith in -- and it's not a blind faith.

It's a faith based on the journey and history of this country. It’s a faith based on the generations that have gone before us. A faith based on the incredible things we've done, with grit and determination, in the face of long odds.

The American people have never, ever let their country down when they’ve had leadership willing to support them, to challenge them, and to bring them together.

That's the America I'll never stop fighting for. Are you with me?

Keep the faith, folks.
