Clear articulation

One of the things I like about Mitt Romney's book No Apologies is his discussion of other countries and their leaders. He does not pull punches when discussing Vladimir Putin of Russia or the leaders of China, Venezuela, North Korea, Iran and all the other Jihadists. He is specific about our need to deter and/or compete with any and all other countries who attempt to harm America. When was the last time you heard a president of the United States articulate clearly and candidly the truth about those who would threaten us? This man has been doing his homework, and does not seem naive.
