She put that table together. She worked with Oman to 'tunnel through' to get Iran to the table in a serious 'for real' way.

It's a good deal, a crowing achievement of the Obama administration, and she owns a good chunk of it. This is just the opening paragraph in a book about the resumption of relations, though--there are more chapters to write here, and a lot of them have to do with human rights.

But this is a good start!

That pic cracks me up!!
