Barack Obama
I'm blown away. I'm flabbergasted the president [Barack Obama] made the phone call to Rouhani after 30-plus, `79, 33 years or so. And there's a reason we haven't negotiated with Iran, because they're state-sponsored terrorists. They're the central bank for terrorism around the world.

Barack Obama

Barack Obama
I don't regret the excitement, because I do think that it helped us accomplish as much as we did.
Barack Obama
