This would be America’s chance of helping the youth of Iran to break their corrupt, stifling régime. The young of Iran are crying out for freedom; and they are crying out for help, too. Obama could help them find their freedom; and he could also respond to their cries for help. The weaknesses of the Iranian political system, weaknesses in the régime which are so self-evident, could be exploited.

What’s the state of his stomach? Fluttery.
