In a well governed nation, creating a defensive alliance to confront terrorism would naturally include Russia. Note also that he suggests either expanding and realigning NATO in the time of terrorism or forming a new alliance for that purpose. Today is a long way from 2015 and what might be perceived as a serious policy suggestion then would be folly to propose today.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
