The Iran accord - Thank you President Obama

I've been hearing for years from some folks how there is no difference between Democrats and Republicans.

Thank you President Obama for choosing a different course.

14. This is a sigh of relief to all of us who don't believe in war as the first and/or only answer.

And I just hate to see the precious lives of our military - squandered in hair-brained PNAC pipe-dreams.

Normalized relations with Cuba. I believe an all out Peace Offencive over the next 12 months would secure the House for the Democrats as well as the Presidency in 2016.
