A lot of people have said to me, 'That's a great idea, running for president. You'll get booked for more speeches. You can write a book.'

If Iran obtains nuclear weapons, then almost certainly Saudi Arabia will do the same, as will Egypt, Turkey and perhaps others in the region.

You don't need to spend tens of millions of dollars on political consultants to tell you what you think when you already know what you think.

If you get a President (Hillary) Clinton, you might well find, just as after Vietnam, that there is a retraction from Iraq and of American influence in the world. And in a couple of years the Europeans will be complaining about that too.

I don't much believe in bumper sticker characterizations of foreign policy.

I think the International Criminal Court could be a threat to American security interests, because the prosecutor of the court has enormous discretion in going after war crimes.
