Barack Obama actually said...

The United States is committed to the defense and the well-being of its close friend and ally, the Republic of Korea.

I am grateful that he has agreed to take on this important role, and I look forward to working with him in the weeks and months ahead.

I truly believed, this was the best team in all of sports, any sport, any gender, by far.

Congratulations to the UConn Huskies on your second straight undefeated season and your second straight NCAA championship.
