Carlos J. Torres, of Virginia, to be Deputy Director of the Peace Corps.
We're not looking at sending in 100,000 American troops.
ISIL poses a broader threat because of its territorial ambitions in Iraq and Syria.

I want the American people to understand the nature of the threat and how we're going to deal with it.
Keeping the American people safe is my highest priority.
America is the only indispensable nation.
