I think you need to have people around you who can remind you that, actually, what you just said makes no sense. Fortunately, I have my wife to do that continually.

Some of the same politicians and pundits that are so quick to reject the possibility of a diplomatic solution to Iran's nuclear program are the same folks who were so quick to go to war in Iraq and said it would take a few months.

Now, as a nation, we don't promise equal outcomes, but we were founded on the idea everybody should have an equal opportunity to succeed. No matter who you are, what you look like, where you come from, you can make it. That's an essential promise of America. Where you start should not determine where you end up.

As long as I'm president of the United States Iran will not get a nuclear weapon. I made that clear when I came into office.

All across the world, ...increasingly dangerous weather patterns and devastating storms are abruptly putting an end to the long-running debate over whether or not climate change is real.

Since 1981, after our nations severed diplomatic relations, we've worked through a international tribunal to resolve various claims between our countries.

With the nuclear deal done, prisoners released, the time was right to resolve this dispute as well.
