Hillary answered it correctly ("I'd have to evaluate the circumstances at the time"), Bernie is still definitely more uncomfortable with foreign policy. | ||

Only the Great Decider, Dubya himself, could YOLO and say yes/no/x in these situations. EDIT: Sanders, please move off the Iraq thing (side note: Kerry voted for Iraq). Hillary has more hawkish foreign policy. She voted for it. A lot of people did. Move on, end of story. I don't like Hillary's answer about hurrdurr experience either TBH. | ||

I think they're dumb questions because the correct answer is basically no answer or it's complicated and I'd need to see all the facts. | ||
