I’m running for President to keep the country I love safe, and prevent other families from risking their loved ones in war as my family has. I will draw on all my experience with the world and its leaders, and all the tools at our disposal - diplomatic, economic, military and the power of our ideals - to build the foundations for a stable and enduring peace.

Comforting words, but they may just be that. I'm struggling these days with the problem of how I can believe the words and deeds of presidential candidates when their words and deeds are functions of their intent to become the most powerful person in the world.
I do think they are meaningful, at least not totally empty.
It doesn't mean that he isn't ill-tempered, but it does mean he understands what war is: terrible. He also recognizes that sometimes it is part of this fallen world.
