As a Iranian I want to thank you for your support.

Did he mention "political process" anywhere? Hmmm... Must a missed that. What I did hear him state articulately is that America ought to unambiguously show solidarity with those droves of Iranian people seeking basic human rights of freedom from tyrannical, dictatorial oppression. You and Obama refraining from taking that kind of stand of support for freedom seekers is simply un Reagan-like... UNAMERICAN!! Or more universal..INHUMANE! That equates to your kind simply being hypocritical!

These kind of protests has a limmit and simmilar protests has happened in USA during Vietnam, Army nattinal gaurds shot protersters killed many University students. Why we are concern for Iran? .

after Soviet Cold war US is facing to two possible enemies China and Islam. we choose Islam for now because it can deal with easier that China. Iraq, Iran, Pakistan, and other small orgnizations are the proof . getting Getting involve in Iran Like Cuba will not work but only of Floods of refugees.

This shows clearly that no matter what the president says the republicans will absolutely disagree. This is clearly an issue for the Iranians to sort out for themselves. You need to realize that the rest of the world is not an extension of our value system. We would not like it if some foreign power tried to influence our political process. We have enough to worry about right here. Focus on that. Democracy doesn't automatically indicate "Freedom". They offer no really good options between them.
