Yes, but they’re not running for President.

I don’t expect the candidates to know every single city in the world of significance, nor every single leader of every tiny craphole country, but I expect them to at least know as much about foreign affairs as I do.

I spend all day every day following world events and politics and I couldn’t have told you what Aleppo is.

Then tell us why Alleppo matters at all? the Syrian government bombs rebels there. The media gives us sad sad stories about people who are making dirt stew and why mean ol’ Assad should stop bombing the rebels as they study Jefferson and Madison.

Beyond that, Applepopo just doesn’t matter at all, tactically, politically, or anything.
