I don't think you can get into the Senate unless you can do this. I bet he could just as quickly pivot around to a talk in front of a bunch of Iranian/Americans with almost the same speech.

This is one of the many reasons I don't hold a lot of respect for politicians in general and have become so damned cynical in general.
