Abe was President when we were entering a major war, and fighting wars is a legit function of government even if you didn't agree with the Civil War.

In what respect is Trump - more so than any other candidate - going to make us "stronger"? He's no more pro-military than any of them, no tougher on foreign policy. There is this repeated use of the word "WINNING", but I don't see how just using that particular word so much will ensire any more positive results with Trump than it did for Charlie Sheen.

So what, specifically, are the unique policies he has espoused that will make us "stronger"?

On military alone, I agree with you. There are many in the Republican race that might be more inclined to engage in foreign wars, deploy troops etc.

The war that Trump has identified is about culture, and borders and the economy . . . but it is even more than that: He is the one who is demolishing political correctness, a WMD of the progressives. He is the one that has defeated the media army. (Rush is great on this topic.) He is the only one that had the guts, originally, to say we need to deport all illegals and ban the Muslims. I’m still not sure anyone else is fully on board.

On trade, Trump stands alone, unfortunately. I think the others, including Cruz, are just too compromised to be relied upon.

The socialism that has taken hold in this country is Full-Spectrum, permeating far below government programs, into the schools our small children attend as well as of course their universities. Then there is the media. I believe this is a fight that goes far beyond votes and vetoes. It is a fight for the heart of America, and it is to the death. I think Trump can revitalize the psyche and the resolve of the nation in a way that is not unlike what Reagan did.
