The path towards sustainable energy sources will be long and sometimes difficult. But America cannot resist this transition, we must lead it. We cannot cede to other nations the technology that will power new jobs and new industries, we must claim its promise.

That is how we will preserve our planet, commanded to our care by God. That's what will lend meaning to the creed our fathers once declared.

When it comes to the budget, we know that we shouldn't be cutting more on core investments, like education, that are going to help us grow in the future.

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.
