I Think It Could Get Passed In

A President Of The United States, Again, Has To Bring People Together, Have A Position. We Need To Be Able To Penetrate These People When They Are Involved In These Plots And These Plans. And We Have To Give The Local Authorities The Ability To Penetrate To Disrupt. That's What We Need To Do.

I Said That We Needed To Have People On The Ground, Troops On The Ground In A Coalition Similar To What We Had In The First Gulf War.

There Were 16 People In The Race, Including A Number Of Governors, And There's Only One Left. And I Think That At The End We Have To Make Sure That We Have Somebody That Can Go To That Town, Change That System, Grow Employment, Change The Whole Way In Which It Works And Ship Power Money And Influence Back To The States. So I'm Optimistic About It.

You Know, It's Trying To Put Toothpaste Back In The Tube. Not Only Are There A Lot Of Outsiders Intervening But This Also Involves A Vicious Internal War. There Are Many Who Believe The Alawites Will Fight To The Death Because They Believe That, Should They Lose Power, The Majority Would Take, Would Show No Compassion For Them. They Ruled That Country For A Long Time, Ruthlessly. It Is A Vicious Civil War That Makes One Want To Cry Every Day.

[president] Needs To Engage Them In A Very Personal Way. And He Needs To Tell Them That This Is Something That America, The United States Of America, Needs. Not Republican. It's Not Democrat. It's America.
