Clinton: "I feel like my political beliefs are rooted in the conservatism that I was raised with"

19. Circular reasoning in that last, and apparently access sealed.

The only reason I answer is the notion the notion that not going to war is a core liberal value. Wish it was, but it is not. Being warlike is wired into the human psyche, only varying in intensity, and imagining one cannot be a liberal and support war is a mistake.

Not warring for profit, for national supremacy, or to impose our ways on others is a core liberal value.

Liberals by nature are far more accepting of "others" and far more likely to choose to trade ideas with others and resolve conflicts by negotiation.

Conservatives are wired to view "outsiders" with suspicion and fear and tend to believe vanquishing and conquering them is required for their own "protection," and for many national and private profit and empowerment are also very worthy goals.

Liberals are different all rgiht, but even liberals are not completely free of that unfortunate tendency. We will do war also if we decide it's necessary.
