personally i think that failing to name the enemy that needs to be defeated has been the great weakness of the party for quite some time. people know there are powerful interests in the world working against the common good. republicans direct that sentiment toward minorities and foreigners to great effect, it would make a lot of sense for the democrats to do it along class lines. it's the entire reason bernie sanders is popular.
my point is that he was a candidate people wanted to vote for. he didn't win just because everyone was scared of john mccain taking office.
lol yes. obviously.
It's layered, too, if you take the implication that through using that line she's also indicating the importance of "Who watches the watchmen?"
You're right, he definitely wasn't moderate on foreign policy. Much closer to hard right.
Where I'm at, tbh
I'll take a 29 year old with passion over many "adults" in the democratic party who vote for more war and corporate tax cuts because it's the "adult" thing to do.
Political experience is dogwhistle for part of the good ol' boys club. You know, bought and paid for.
Yeah the publicity her platform is getting is great but right now she's a Congresswoman. She can't get anything federal done on her own. I think it's better for her to cooperate a little and get some of her platform an actual chance at legislative access.
And he is still not a Republican.
Endless wars = isolationist policy, which does not work when you are the world's super power. You can blame Bush for the US being involved in the Middle East, we cannot just leave those countries after we have destroyed them, it's our responsibility to rebuild them.
