There is no way the US can afford to retire the baby boom population, pay off the national debt, keep the Bush tax cuts and continue plans to build global military supremacy on land,air,water and space. The DLC exists to make sure that the military isn't what gets cut.

The left needs to make cutting military spending a top priority. Change America's role from superpower to that of a leader of a global defense coalition. Then build only the military absolutely needed.

With the right framing, this would be immensely popular.
