The devil is in the details. Richard Hernandez is right to highlight this sentence:

“We’ll start by seeking a global ban on the production of fissile material for weapons.”

At the end of the day, Barack Obama believes a more vulnerable United States will somehow encourage every nation to follow our lead. A leading contender to become our next national leader must not be so niave. This is why one has to be wary of the first couple of sentences from Democratic Party candidates. The really crazy stuff does not normally appear until around the fourth or fifth sentences. You have to listen closely.
