John Bolton
Don't get me wrong: I would love to be president.
John Bolton
If I were doing the Security Council today, I'd have one permanent member, the United States, because that's the real reflection of the distribution of power in the world. All international laws are invalid, meaningless attempts to constrict American power.
John Bolton
The European Union can now act like a major power, at least that is what the European Union tells us.
John Bolton

John Bolton
Well, you could take several stories off the buildings of most U.S. government agencies and we'd all probably be better for it too.
John Bolton
A strong State Department to me means a corps of career officials who believe that their job is to advocate America's interests and who are trained in effective advocacy, not schooled in accommodation.
John Bolton
Let there be no ambiguity about the American view that Syria's lack of cooperation .. is not acceptable.
John Bolton
We need a strong and effective State Department. We can't conduct American affairs in the world without it.
John Bolton
I don't think there is any good answer to the question why shouldn't gays and lesbians who want to serve their country be allowed to do it.
John Bolton
The only way to resolve the North Korean problem is to change the regime.
John Bolton
As you know, I have over the years written critically about the U.N. I have consistently stressed in my writings that American leadership is critical to the success of the U.N., an effective U.N., one that is true to the original intent of its charter's framers.
