Iran deal had problems, but poor decision to pull out of it
Kelly steers clear of criticizing President Donald Trump too harshly. He believes, for instance, that it was "a rather poor decision" to pull out of the Iran nuclear deal. "It had some issues," he said, adding that "we
should try, through another administration in the White House, to get back to a deal with the Iranians by working with our international partners and our allies."

Middle East peace achievable; won't be easy
He believes that peace in the region is achievable. "It's hard," he said. "I mean, if this was easy, we would have done it decades ago, and we would have been successful.

Services must work for changing veteran population
It's important to Mark that our country keeps its promises to our veterans. There is an urgent need for improvement. From the G.I. Bill to the VA, Mark understands we need veterans services to work for our changing veteran population.
That includes aging and injured veterans who need prompt, quality health care, and young veterans who need mental health care or are looking to translate the skills they learned from their service into a good-paying job.
