...next day, as we did a photo shoot on the Washington Mall, I kept pressing him: why was he the one his classmates singled out as a presidential hopeful? He kept repeating he had no plans about the presidency either way, and I kept saying, all right. Then why do so many people think...

What I had done to Caleb in being deceptive about the angle of my story certainly wasn't nice. It wasn't nice either to write a story about Caleb—or about any of the others—that I had good reason to think would make them upset. By the standards of personal ethics, it wasn’t particularly virtuous to publicize my classmates’ ambitions in order to further...

And yet Graham, who was once such a climate change skeptic that...

...nuclear weapons; doves will say that diplomacy wasn't given a serious chance. And those who insisted on a time limit for diplomatic efforts to stop Iran's nuclear program will almost certainly do the same on sanctions. That could force Obama, in the next year or two, to either hit the proverbial "reset" button on Iran diplomacy, or else confront the narrower choice touted by Western hawks: bomb Iran, or Iran with the bomb...
