Rick Perry: The World Views Obama As Weak And Feckless
Former Texas Governor Rick Perry is traveling around America to get out his message that the current administration lacks leadership, and that the country is at a tipping point. Perry is no fan of President Barack Obama, and he makes that very clear in this video.
“As someone who believes America is the greatest force for freedom and prosperity in the world, it’s frustrating to see the president shuffle from one crisis to the next, and to hear his words ring hollow when there should be unwavering resolve.”
The governor offers up a perspective of the United States from the viewpoint of Iran.
“Imagine the view from Tehran – as they’re trying to negotiate a nuclear agreement with the United States – when they see the leaders of the western countries scrambling to get Vladimir Putin to sign a piece of paper that he’ll completely ignore within hours.”
Perry also asks what the people of Israel, France, and Poland think of our president.
What does it look like from Tel Aviv when our president is more willing to negotiate with Iran than to hear the concerns of our strongest Middle Eastern ally? What does it look like from the streets of Paris when the President of the United States fails to show up in France after the worst terror attack in that country in decade? And what does it look like from the squares in Poland, where a people so recently freed from subjugation by Russia see Putin getting away with dismembering Ukraine, and wondering if this president will act to save NATO?
The potential presidential candidate points out that the next election cycle will determine the future of our great nation.
This is not the America I know. The choice we face in 2016 is whether we can endure a future that looks like the last six years. Our children will not inherit an America with greater opportunity when America continues to shrink from its role in the world. Americans are starving for leadership. Leadership that will act and solve the great challenges we face today. Leadership that isn’t ashamed to see America lead the world again and that stands with its allies again. This is the view we must tirelessly protect. This is the view the world needs to see.
