Bernie Sanders is not a foreign policy lightweight.

He has a clear understanding of the history of US foreign policy, and how that is still impacting us today.
I really appreciate him bringing sanity -yes, finally, SANITY- into FP discussion into this election cycle.
I also have a degree in IR, and it strikes me that his FP philosophy might be a mix of mild Liberal Interventionism and Realism, which, in policy-making process, would translate as being a dove.

I hope when he gets into WH, he would have realists on his side so he could listen to them (Realist scholars like John Mearsheimer I really admire). The neocons must be cast out of Washington. They are simply wrong about everything. And if you don't cast them out, they WILL isolate America, and destroy it from within and without.
From FP perspective, it has to be Bernie, and he must have the sane voice surrounding him as well...

Bernie Sanders in this debate was a first time I have heard any viable mainstream politician acknowledge the consequences of our foreign policy.

and clearly understands the danger w/North Korea (Madame Secretary was rambling on about Russia while N. Korea was getting ready to launch missiles at Japan).

He has lived in Israel and supports a 2-state solution. I think he clearly understands the issues there.

And I have not once heard him say that the solution is to "obliterate" countries (unlike someone we know).

He'll be fine.

Removing a democratically elected leader is the same kind of action a republican president would take. Ronald Ray-Gun comes to mind.

--the kind of repeatable, simple summary that he has for his domestic poiicy.

his answers are nuanced and often show an awareness not just of current events, but the history of how we got to where we are.
