Bill Rogers: Big presidential shoes to fill

Regarding the July 16 editorial “A good nuclear deal with Iran”: America has the obligation to choose the very best person to lead this country.

Regardless of how anyone feels about President Obama, I believe history will attest to the fact that this effort with Iran, along with his other all-important accomplishments, will solidify his legacy as one of our greatest presidents.

It appears that few of the present presidential candidates will have either the intelligence, desire or the capacity to negotiate such future security efforts on our behalf.
