(62,325 posts)Naked Scanners, Rice, don't get me started. The others are slightly better but part of the whole inside circle that has changed the Democratic Party.
There are plenty of great Democratic women who would make fantastic presidents. Eg, Barbara Lee, a super intelligent, actual Progressive and excellent on Civil Liberties and Foreign policy.
Elizabeth Warren, great for the Working Class, not yet sure about where she stands on FP, but if you care about the Working Class you are not going to, like Clinton, vote continually to spend trillions on useless and dangerous wars all over the world.
I will not support anyone, like Susan Rice eg, whose FP differs very little from Bush. It is these policies that contributed so much to the deficit, that have endangered the US rather than made it secure. It has encouraged so much financial corruption it is mind-boggling and steals money away from what WOULD make this country safer.
Enough of the old Cold Warriors, both left and right. We don't need to be killing people all over the world, and doing so will only destroy this country in the end, both morally and economically.
