I gave a direct answer to YOUR question :
In your opinion - what is the worst US foreign policy decision in the last 37 years?
Why trivialize the import of two horrendous wars, Viet Nam and Korea, and the foreign policy decision to allow both nuclear armed super powers, China and Russia, to grow in strength at the expense of our national security?
I think this insistence that foreign policy and people's judgement can be reduced down to a single vote on a single action highlights what I feel is Mayor Pete's problem, a lack of experience leading to a limited and simplistic world view.
But I guess if we are looking for sound bites to score points in a news cycle, then that's what Mayor Pete, a 37 year old local official, has to do? Attack Joe Biden?
But to answer your new question what was the ONE action about the ONE event that was the worse foreign policy decision in Mayor Pete's 37 year old lifetime, I would have to say it was President Bill Clinton's failure to respond to the Rwandan Genocide in 1994.
But Mayor Pete was only 1 or 2 years old at the time and seems to feel "Washington experience", meaning, I think, national level experience is not that important, so perhaps that's why he overlooked this genocide.
