Despite Absurd Debate Questions, Foreign Policy Was in Sharp Focus

1. 'Under American rule'?!?!?!

2. Tulsi Gabbard is very clear on what she means when she means the 'war on terror', She is referring to the deathsquads and militias which the USA currently arms and trains throughout the world, 'Al Queda' 'ISIS' and the Nazis in Ukraine, the Christian Falangists who just enabled the coup in Bolivia. USA IS the terror, and she is pointing it out. Why don't people listen to the words coming out of her mouth? Is it because she is beautiful and they can't concentrate?

3. And…….9:25 The usual slanders against Tulsi Gabbard. This guy is obviously a pro-war liberal type, such as makes up the Democratic electorate in America, and apparently Britain as well. They don't want to understand the role of diplomacy (as opposed to war) which Tulsi Gabbard has taken on, for the cause of Peace and Life on earth. A cynical and cruel bunch of capitalist true-believers who are ready to go 'all the way' no matter what…. They'll even slander the antiwar Left Socialists as fascists, while at the same time, joining forces with the real fascists to beat back the 'communists'.

4. Tulsi Gabbard on Bolivia: "It's a coup, period.' You guys are totally discredited now. Do your homework, TRN. https://www.rt.com/news/474073-tulsi-gabbard-bolivia-coup/

5. What no Tulsi up front in the first clips of candidates talking about foreign policy? What are you a bunch of tools too? Sad.

6. There all freaking Zionist

7. Anti-imperialism is a vital and necessary component in any way forward for the US. Those chickens have been coming home to roost for some time now and the old excuses and sited reasons are not working for power as well as it did under Bush/Cheney since Ron Paul came out and woke up the reactionary side a bit and Bernie and others have done the same for the liberals. Toppling states/governments just ain't what it used to be and what used to be behind closed doors and/or thousands of miles away is in Twitter feeds, Facebook feeds, IG posts, YT, etc, so keeping it low-key just isn't possible anymore. Add war fatigue on behalf of the population and it's game over for a while regardless.

8. Congratulations to the DNC for giving Andrew Yang and Tulsi Gabbard the Ron Paul treatment. These 2 are the only ones on stage that aren't bought & paid for by our overlords and the DNC is enforcing a media blackout on them. Well done. Neoliberalism 101 at its finest.

11. I mean, i have my criticisms of Tulsi, but that dude straight lied when he said Tulsi hasn't brought up coup's in South America. I see this time and again when many Progressives who are def to the left of Tulsi and yet remain blind to the plenty of problems with Bernie's foreign policy over his career, they bring up only the instances that fit nicely into this box they desperately want Tulsi to fit into. That box being: that she's really a secret Paleo-Con, and not at all actually left than Bernie on certain foreign policy positions. Now it's certainly the case Bernie has finally gotten decent on some areas, even better than Tulsi on some for that matter, but he was all in on the Assad regime-change plan, made absolutely horrific dog-shit statements regarding Venezuela, and was also incessantly spouting Russiagate conspiracy theory bullshit for years. It's true, i think Tulsi isn't very good when it comes to India, but she was one of the first to come out and completely condemn Trump's coup attempt in Venezuela, and has also commented on the Bolivian one, (though not as quickly as Bernie did). I still think Bernie is way better on domestic policy, but i am sick and tired of these supposed leftists who go after Tulsi for her obvious flaws but then are silent when confronted with Bernie's. These are also the same people who thought regime change in Syria was this superb idea, and have been attacking the likes of Rania Khalek, Max Blumenthal, and Ben Norton for their reporting on the conflict over the years.

    The sad fact is, no one on stage is remotely radical enough for the sort of change this country is in desperate need of. And as great as it might sem getting Bernie elected, let's be real for a second: he wont get a single piece of his agenda passed into law, it's just that simple. And that's not at all because his "organizer in chief" plan is a bad one, in fact it will be a hell of a lot more successful than putting up another neoliberal piece of garbage and trying for moderate reform, but it still will fall way short. Most elected Dem's don't support his proposals, let alone Republicans for fuck's sake! The system is designed to make sure his sort of policy proposals quite literally can't, nor will ever get passed. So it most definitely wont be on Bernie when it does fail, but there's no doubt that the mainstream media will make damn sure everyone blames him for it regardless. Then that way they can try to, and sadly will most likely succeed, at primarying him due to his supposed "ineffectiveness." All while saying, "he was just too radical for America."

    So we'll be in a one-step forward, two-steps back sort of position when it's all said and done. And this is what u get when you focus most, if not all, of your political organizing funneling it into the realm of electoral politics, believing we can elect our way to political revolution. Real change comes from organizing movements outside of electoral politics and by putting pressure on those elected. Im not saying you shouldn't campaign and fight to get your policies and those who are championing said policies elected, just don't expect that that is all it's going to take to radically change this country, and in the long run – prevent our very species from going extinct due to global-warming/climate-change.

12. just really diffult to watch this politically IN-correct show. garbage. each one of the candidates supports a particular plutocrat/s. if they try anything funny they will be knocked out of the race. if they get elected as president and act funny, they get impeached, if not killed.

    If america gets ONE Plutocrat to rule them all, then there could be a chance that American politics MAY look stable. If that ONE plutocrat has a hart for the sheep, then maybe there will be some good times. We as a species think we are great, infact we dont know what to do with great power. We constantly mess things up.

13. Please cite specifics if one of your guests is going to allege some friendship or allegiance between Narendra Modi and Tulsi Gabbard. Appreciate your reports very much.

14. Russian aggression? Who is intervening in different countries?

15. Get your facts straight: Tulsi on Bolivia: https://twitter.com/TulsiGabbard/status/1197793248225267712

16. Tulsi on Bolivia…

    https://youtu.be/VetuOOpFnNw

    She also spoke for Assange day he was arrested (love Bernie but he MIA here still).

17. The man (I am thinking here Bloomberg, Biden or Sanders) who is the first to decide to openly woo and win the Tu Good to be true 'Super Alpha Warrior Female' for their running mate wins the White House.

18. I always have to chuckle when I hear someone say something about the Russians interfering in US politics. What makes you think that WE don’t interfere in Russian politics?????

19. What an incredible trio of young woke people. Gives me a lot of hope for the future of the US! Excellent panel!!!

20. Sanders can only find the unemployment in Gaza objectionable! This is what passes as foreign policy discourse in this empire!

21. Tulsi is the only candidate running for the presidency. The others are running
    to promote DOMESTIC POLICIES that belong to the CONGRESS AND SENATE.
    The PRESIDENCY is the office that controls FOREIGN POLICY… Lets watch the
    debates with this in mind. Have you noticed that Bernie Sanders doesn't
    call out the US , CIA sponsored INTERFERENCE IN so many countries around
    the world….the latest being Bolivia.
    Here's a good subject for a debate: WHy was the so-called WAR ON TERROR
    accepted as real when it was, in reality , a fiction.. Think about that.

22. This guy is smearing Tulsi calling her a right wing. She has called out the Bolivian coup, and Venezuela.

23. I can't believe you guys are spreading that modi be smear. Here I am thinking that you guys want to talk about serious foreign policy you guys talk about her meeting with Assad? So did Pelosi! And? You people should be on the view!

24. 2 observations: 1) It is not just progressives who are sensitive to foreign policy issues, even when troops are not dying on the ground; many small "l" libertarians (I am not one) are even more woke on these issues. 2) Gabbard HAS spoken out on Bolivia. Clearly. She has NOT endorsed Obama era war policies. Those are smears. Very disappointing to see at RNN. BOO

25. Bernie did bring up that he fought against the Iraq war while Biden fought for it.

    I think people give Trump too much credit for his debating skills I don't see Bernie having any problem in making him look like the fool he is.

26. Tulsi made the strongest statement against the Bolivian coup and linked it to the hand of American involvement, the only one to have done that. And this panel if you listen to them closely are a bunch of "State Department Socialists", which is basically what The Real News has become. Maybe that's how Paul finally secured those loans to keep the lights on.

27. Welcome to the United States of Israell (AIPACC)sponsored by Saudii Arabiia and made in Chinaa for never ending warss which the taxpayers are paying for instead of infrastructure.

28. Bernie: charity, decency, and dignity… but accept racism and apartheid in israel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=piWbS2bAvTY&t=1s at 8' 0" ; 8min 0 sec. Bernie supports apartheid in israel, matter-of-factly, with righteous assertiveness he _is __a g a i n s t__e q u a l_ r i g h ts_for_ every__citizen_of_israel. Question "[..] a one-state solution with equal rights for israelis and palestinians alike and equal citizenship, is that something you think could happen or is that something you support?" Bernie: "No, i don't.  I mean i think if that happens then that would be the end of the state of israel, and i support israel's right to exist" [does he favor modern-genetic over nazi-biometric tests of J-ness?]
