People Don't Expect Government To Solve All

The Belief That Peace Is Desirable Is Rarely Enough To Achieve It. Peace Requires Responsibility. Peace Entails Sacrifice.

When You Take On The Position Of President, You Are Committing Yourself To, First And Foremost, Protecting The American People. You Are Accepting An Institutional Role That Requires You To Make Hard Decisions And Hard Choices, And As A Consequence You Have To Take Your Moral Sense And Not Put It Aside.

Everything We've Done Has Been Designed To Make Sure That We Address That Number One Priority. That's What The Sanctions Regime Was All About. That's How We Were Able To Mobilize The International Community, Including Some Folks That We Are Not Particularly Close To, To Abide By These Sanctions. That's How These Crippling Sanctions Came About, Was Because We [usa] Were Able To Gain Global Consensus That Iran Having A Nuclear Weapon Would Be A Problem For Everybody.

You Don't Take It Personally. You Understand That If People Are Angry That Somehow The Government Is Failing, Then They Are Going To Look To The Guy Who Represents Government.

What Is True, And I Think That We Can't Deny It, Is That Some Of The Same Concerns About Globalization, About Technology, Rapid Social Change That Were Reflected In Brexit, That's Been Reflected In Some Of The Debates In Germany And France And Other Places, That Those Exist In The United States As Well. My View Is That Over The Long Term, Over The Next 10, 15, 20 Years, If We Are Able To Address The Legitimate Economic Concerns Of Those Who Feel Left Behind By Globalization, Then Many Of These Tensions Will Be Reduced. And We Will See A World That Is Less Divided.
