Congratulations, Mr. President
Congratulations, Mr. President, your last term in office has cemented your legacy and it will be a great one because you are a great man. I knew that when you first ran for president although, admittedly, some doubts lingered. I know now why I came to love you and still do.
The nuclear deal with Iran will go down in history as one of the greatest foreign policy achievements not only of this time but of all time and not only because of this nation but also because of the UK, France, Russia, China, Germany and, of course, Iran that were a part of it.
Prediction: If Republicans obstruct this historic nuclear agreement with Iran, like they have obstructed everything else the president has wanted for the nation to dig us out of the Republican ditch, it will be the last big thing they obstruct. They will be a fractured dead party ruined by yesterday's failed policies and they will never enter the White House. To emphasize how bad Republicans truly are Donald Trump is now leading the bellicose Republican primary pack .
The Republican Party of white, old racist obstructionists is a cancer on the nation's body politic and will kill us IF we let it . A science denying Republican nation of fear, hate, aggression and war will cost us much in blood and treasure it has already cost. It gained nothing but more war and a fractured-beyond-recognition Middle East. We handed Iran the keys to the kingdom of power because of Bush's Iraq War and now we must deal with those political realities.
The nuclear deal with Iran is historically great. You should support it letting Congress and anyone else who will listen know you do!
It is again why a Democrat must occupy the oval office and why DEMOCRATS must take over Congress. Get out the Democratic vote to make sure Hispanics, persons of color, the disabled, the elderly, veterans, women and progressives vote and do so for Democrats the only party that has our interests at heart.
