My guess is no. <br /><br />Those pricks can take a lot of credit for our failures in <br />the Middle East. I'll even through Obama under the bus for good measure.<br /><br />The real problem is a decades long foreign policy that is naive, arrogant, and ignorant of history. We learn nothing and forge ahead with what we've always done--spend a lot, kill a lot, and then end up scratching our heads wondering why nothing ever seems to work. Why can't we bomb and invade our way into countries that will want what we have and be who we are? Why doesn't that work for us. <br /><br /><br /><br />TChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02279964051995739012noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9361564.post-64402590351154671982015-10-15T15:24:28.511-08:002015-10-15T15:24:28.511-08:00Not that I would vote for that ticket solely becau...Not that I would vote for that ticket solely because of it, but a female POTUS and a latino VPOTUS would be amazing!!

No matter how much optimism any individual goes into this office with, its toll shows on him soon enough, especially a two-termer.<br /><br />It's why the ages of the hopeful crop do trouble me. Trump, though no chance of winning, doesn't know what he's biting off, but the others maybe do. Though I've said I'd love to see Hillary put Obama on the court, by January 2017, if all he wants the rest of his life is to laze in a hammock, I could scarcely blame him.dvlarieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14154934310323584284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9361564.post-57391231763246112822015-10-15T14:05:22.501-08:002015-10-15T14:05:22.501-08:00O/T
