Kerry: Obama Was ‘Courageous’ for Sending 4,000 Troops To Fight Ebola

‘More than any other country on the face of the planet, we are out there trying to make a difference’

KERRY: "And more than any other country on the face of the planet, we are out there trying to make a difference. When Ebola came along, it was President Obama’s courageous decision to send 4,000 young Americans there, before all the answers were clear, in order to make sure we could build the capacity to respond. And now in Liberia – Ellen Sirleaf Johnson was here recently saying thank you to us for what America did in order to bring their epidemic under control – not gone yet, but not threatening the world the way we thought it was with a million people potentially being dead by January."
