Secretary Kerry: "Why President Obama is in New York"

Yesterday afternoon, Secretary of State John Kerry sent a message to the White House email list explaining why President Obama was in New York this week -- as the world's leaders gathered for a session of the United Nations General Assembly.

"President Obama spoke to them directly in an address that warrants the attention not only of those leaders, but of all Americans," he said. "It was clear, candid, and compelling. The President talked about the world as it is, and the world as we all hope it can be."
