From Twitter: "Shirley Widlacki ‏@patriotmom61 3m3 minutes ago .@marklevinshow You noticed they gave all the candidates foreign policy & nat sec questions except for Rick Santorum? Why I can't stand Fox." This bugs me because nobody is better than Rick Santorum on foreign policy, ISIS does not like him, for instance. Look up Rick's foreign policy.

“.... nobody is better than Rick Santorum on foreign policy”......

actually not...and 5 other candidates surpass him...here’s why:

Santorum voted for the START II Treaty in 1996, a treaty that severely weakened U.S. national security. (Senate.gov)

Santorum voted to give North Korea $25 million in aid in 1996. (Senate.gov)

Santorum voted for the Chemical Weapons Convention (CWC) in 1997. (Senate.gov)

Santorum Voted in favor of an amendment providing for an $18 billion bailout of the International Monetary Fund in 1998. (Senate.gov)

Santorum voted against offsetting an increase to defense spending with equal budget cuts in non-defense areas in 2001. (Senate.gov)

Santorum has criticized Republicans that want to halt foreign aid to countries that are hostile to the U.S., namely Pakistan. (The Hill)

Santorum originally supported U.S. involvement in Syria, (CNN) but shifted his position to coincide with the wave of public opinion opposing action in Syria. (ABC News)

I agree. Also, Santorum has the best answer to immigration. I ha to miss parts of the debate, didn't get to hear all the comments, if any.

Jindal was an effective speaker and made good points but he has been for amnesty. I heard his parents were not citizens when he was born - if true, I have a problem with that.
