2016 Postmortem

(814 posts)40. You mean policy like...?
Regime change(Syria, Libya, Honduras)?! Oh yes, give me more of that! I can't WAIT to go to war with Iran and see god knows how many of our sons and daughters die.
These policies are idiotic and don't WORK, they didn't work when we tried to help throw out Mossadegh, Allende, Chavez, etc. Instead we made things worse, especially in the Middle East. Could you imagine what a DEMOCRATIC Iran could've done to help stabilize the area and we could've cut our ties to the MESS that is Saudia Arabia.

So we're getting two candidates who the vast majority do NOT want. Our political system is broken.
