Hillary is no Obama when it comes to not doing stupid things [View all]

In the debate Hillary let slip her real foreign strategy which is first work with dictatorial strongmen when it provides economic benefit for her rich donors. From most accounts, President Obama didn't really want to get involved in Libya. Clinton did, and pushed the president to adopt her view. She was, to be blunt, for regime change there. Likewise in Syria, Clinton was much more in favor of taking down Assad than Obama. And, famously, she voted for war in Iraq. She chose not to "work with the tough men, the dictators," and instead advocated a military solution in each of these cases. Clinton seems to want to have it both ways. "Sometimes you deal with the dictators, and sometimes you use the military to overthrow them" might sum this up, in fact. Or perhaps you could add: "And sometimes you get to promote democracy" to round it out. This is extracted from Huffington Post Article by Chris Weigant.
Do we really want our foreign policy run by someone who would sacrifice our sons and daughters to prop up dictatorships so the oligarchy makes as much money as possible? Go Bernie- who works for us not the oligarchy!
