    In a speech at the California Democratic convention. Summarizes all of her programs. Very solid. Far to the Left of Elizabeth Warren, who's now getting a push from the establishment media. More independant than Bernie. She's already pushed him to the Left on foreign policy.

    Bernie also introduced his first socialist program. He can now legitimately identify as a socialist.

    Democracy in the workplace.



    None of this would've happened if Hillary won.

    I thought the left is convinced robots will take over all the menial jobs in Ametic

    Does that mean robots will have a say in running the company?

    Would love to see a sanders/gabbard ticket. They would crush it in the general together.

    Unfortunately biden will probably be the defacto nominee since the dnc is probably going to cheat bernie again. And then bernie will tell us to keep voting for the dumbocrats. Oh well.

    Sorry but there aren't enough non-Americans voting to elect a Sanders/Gabbard ticket.

    On the upside though, we would get a lot more replays of Red Dawn being shown on television during the election.

    First her foreign policy is the traditional American policy for our first 175 years.

    She does not want to Impeach Trump

    I don't get the red dawn ref. We would be replacing a draft dodger with a Major with 4 years in a war Zone.

    Impeaching trump is stupid, counter productive, and does not address the real problems with his administration.

    Gabbard is the only person in the election with the kind if first hand experience in regards to our foreign policy. She knows what she is talking about because she has lived it and seen first hand what our interventionism is doing.

    Trump was not healthy enough to serve.

    Do you have proof his doctor was lying?

    There is no basis for that claim.

    She's an Iraq war veteran. Do you even care if you're being accurate in your assertions?

    I mostly like Gabbard. Its too bad her claim of wanting 'sensible' gun control instead of 'using the issue like a political football' equates to her having supported every rediculous attempt to restrict american gun rights ever put in front of her.

    Cant support that.

    No, but I don't need to know it to call him a draft dodger. He didn't serve, I did. Do you really believe he was hurt so bad that he could not serve?

    No. But it certainly appears the military thought so. My dad was a carpenter his whole life. Still is. His scholiosis barred him from service, but it didn't stop him from ever doing anything else.

    Many dodged the draft for school- let alone injuries. If you're making the claim that a US president MUST be prior service, to be the Commander in Chief...I will agree there. I believe a President should be required to lead the armed forces with prior service. Or else we end up with Obama and Trump.

    Well that's her only actual conservative stance, as opposed to the majority of Dems and Rebubs who are acting as big liberal government, neocon whores for the banking and defense contracting industries.

    Everything else is just the "free **** for everyone" platform

    Pretty sure she was a medic in the National Guard with one year in a combat zone as a medic. That doesn't make her an Eisenhower, a Patton, or a G.I. Joe. As for Trump, if he had bone spurs, it disqualified him. You can be the baddest man alive. But if you have bone spurs, it essentially cripples you or makes you unable to function up to standard. As for having military service on ones resume, it may or may not mean that much. The military also has its share of society's riff raff underneath all that training. Gabbard spent most of her life supporting traditional marriage between a man and a woman. She has since discarded that principle for party. It could be argued that anyone who would discard a priceless principle for popularity, could likewise discard friend and nation under the right circumstance.

    Tulsi used to be a homophobe but has since changed her views not for the sake of popularity but because its the moral thing to do. And its certainly not for her party. She is pretty much black listed among her peers in the dnc and isnt afraid to call out corruption and drop names. She was the first person in the party to call out the dnc for rigging the primaries in 2016 months before wikileaks dropped that bombshell.

    That was almost 20 years ago. She's 38. One of the smears against her.

    I was homophic around that time. Again. Almost 20 years ago. Were the same age. Born the sane month. Everyone I knew was homophobic. He who is without sin and all that.

    Yes, and your dad still suffered from it. It didn't get all better the next year. When I was inducted there was a guy there that was all-state in Basketball and he flunked for flat feet.

    No she discarded it after serving with gays in the military. Joining the military has a way of removing prejudice from people. Once you sleep in the same barracks as them for a year, you realize they are just the same except who they want to have sex with.

    Look, you wear the uniform, you wear the uniform. From there on in it is just luck, As she is an officer so she was never a medic. She was in logistics. What civies call supply. and most of her life? she was not even 20 when she
    made that comment and by 26YO she announced it changed. Now even if you say her opinions were formed at 16 she only had the opinion for 10 years and it has been 12 years since she refuted it. most of her life if that is what she believed in 2nd grade!

    She grew up in a religious household those prejudices are absorbed by osmosis. Once she became an adult and went into the world, these changed.
