The systematic corruption and infestation of our political system by special interests and the economic elite is the single greatest over-arching issue that is systematically destroying our country, and makes progress impossible. Bernie Sanders is the only candidate truly committed to at least attempting to do something about this. Everything else-- guns, black people, abortion, scandals, is a sideshow that just dilutes what is really important.

Just a reminder, national security threats are highly sensationalized. Russia has a GDP smaller than the state of California, and aside from Putin's eccentricity, has few reasons to conflict geopolitically with the United States.

There is no coherent foreign policy under current rules of engagement that would result in a positive outcome in Syria. Deploying troops would be 100% counterproductive. You cannot win an occupation against an insurgency unless you are the Wehrmacht.

great lune, you just made a post I will never stop quoting in every political thread for the next year [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
