We can quickly discount 'spreading freedom and democracy' as it's become increasingly hard for any US administration to say that with a straight face.
Any serious war with Iran would go badly for Iran, but far, far worse for the US and the middle east.
The geography of Iran would definitely be an obstacle for the US military. Losers all the way around. Any president that started a war like this on little or no pretense would be a madman.
Anybody wanna check that box?
