Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton argued Sunday that rival Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) didn’t really have a network of advisers counseling him on foreign policy.
NBC “Meet the Press” host Chuck Todd asked Clinton how her criticisms of President Barack Obama’s foreign policy experience in the 2008 debate differed from those on Sanders.
Clinton argued that Obama had a “network of advisers on national security and foreign policy issues” who were helping him prepare.
“And they really went toe-to-toe with all the people supporting me. That’s
not happening in this campaign. There really isn’t any kind of foreign
policy network that is supporting and advising Senator Sanders. I’ll
let him speak for himself,” Clinton said. “I think that what’s important is this job
requires you to be ready on all aspects of it on the first day. And we
know we’ve got a particularly complex world right now. And the President’s not going to have the time.”
When Henry Kissinger´s your mentor, I wouldn´t go there.
And it shows clearly.
Not to dis Hillary, but Bernie is a Senator. He has access to all sorts of intelligence briefings and analysis. And he’s been getting that information for quite a while.
Unfucking believable, the most facile, superficial Chuck Todd false equivalence … ever [edit: okay, I exaggerated, only so far this week (which just started)]! In 2008, Senator Obama had cogent, thoughtful and well-articulated foreign policy positions. During 7 years in office, he’s persistently carried them out. 2016 Sanders knows next to nothing compared to 2008 Obama. Even worse, he doesn’t care enough to learn.
The bounce and reverberation of innuendo.
But with pictures!
Care to actually point out the foreign policy failures of the Sec Clinton State Department?
(Benghazi anyone? Bueller?)
Or just joyous and superficial innuendo-- and pictures!
