2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumObama and Hillary had very little foreign policy experience
going in, and learned on the job. Bernie has more experience going in and has
consistently been on the correct side of any vote he's made...as opposed to hawkish
Hillary.
Nuff said.

(89,240 posts)the problem is that sanders has not done this. i'm not just talking about campaign speeches.
i don't know why he cancelled the foreign policy speech he was supposed to give.
Lodestar
(2,388 posts)As Chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Subcommittee on European Affairs he had jurisdiction over NATO. But this assignment came just as he launched his presidential run so
he didn't serve long or do that much (as pointed out by then candidate and political
rival Hillary Clinton). So on paper only, as a line in his resume it looks good.

(2,388 posts)on a variety of issues and policies. That's why it is very important who one chooses to have around
them as advisors...and is something I'd like to know more about as regards Bernie.
For all of Hillary's experience I do not support many of her decisions and the results they
brought. I don't like her choices of advisors.
I trust Bernie to make better decisions.
