Barack Obama actually said...

"Make no mistake, as long as nuclear weapons exist, the United States will maintain a safe, secure, and effective arsenal to deter any adversary, and guarantee that defense to our allies."

"But having said all that, I truly believe that there's nothing more noble than public service."

"Iran's nuclear and ballistic missile activity poses a real threat, not just in the United States but to Iran's neighbors and our allies."

"I think it was a very helpful moment."
