Obama focused on domestic issues?

Reading between the lines, I wouldn't be at all surprised if it turned out that Obama has asked the Iranian negotiators to help him tame Congress. Obama's Presidency has seemed to me always more focused on domestic issues. He could, one imagines, cut a horrible deal with our enemies if it would help him break the ongoing impasse with Congress in his favor. Perhaps that's what this negotiations are about.

But, this is my gut instinct, I can't prove this.
