Anyone elses thought of this?

It seems to me that the title for the leader of this country is "President of the United States". It is NOT "President of the World".

Having said that: Why all the assaults on Bernie for not getting deep into international discussions?
Isn't it MORE important to focus on domestic issues for a President of the United States candidate?
Aren't there other job descriptions in government to focus on international affairs, such as Sec. of State, Ambassadors, etc.?

Maybe I'm off in left field here but I just thought of that after seeing yet ANOTHER article saying Bernie is "weak on international issues". Granted he needs to be AWAKE and AWARE of international issues but isn't the President of the UNITED STATES kind of like the CEO of the government running THIS COUNTRY?

I'm curious as to whether anyone else has had this thought or, maybe, I should see about some meds....

does anyone have ANY idea what Clinton means...

...when she says, "I can't be establishment because I'm a woman." (Paraphrasing)

Those of us from the 60s and 70s are WELL AWARE of what the establishment is, does, and stands for and I don't recall any sorting out between male and female.

I don't know if this has been seen yet>>>>

I do not do social media so I'm hoping that by sharing this on here it will get WIDE DISTRIBUTION! To coin an old phrase, this article is "Where the rubber meets the road"!!!

These are FACTS and NOT "Clinton facts" that must get shared as much as possible, especially in South Carolina and other of Killery's alleged "firewall states".

Thanks for your help!
