Thank you for that.

Perhaps I should explain more clearly that if anyone determines what is in the "best interests of the US" it is the President and not any number of random USians in discussion groups such as this who often believe they are so anointed to make such a statement. So out here in the colonies one would pay more attention to what comes out of the Whitehouse in this regard than from the claims of any individual. Seems to be a cultural thing with USians that they all believe that they and they alone know what is in the "best interests of the US".
