There are now many avowed candidates in both the GOP and the Dem fields; all but one from each party, at the end of the primaries, will be gone. One GOP candidate and one Dem candidate will go head to head, toe to toe with each other and no fringe party candidate will do anything for either major party this time around. That leaves us with a Dem candidate, whose policies and actions will lead to more attacks, by terrorist, on our soil and one GOP candidate, whose positions and actions most likely ( I don't trust McCain, even on the WOT ) will be the reverse of that.
Ergo, my statement, which is factual and has nothing whatsoever to do with an old COLD WAR canard from lefties.
The man would probably cringe if he ever touched a firearm, were sent into combat, or, which is most likely, faced with the complexities of the emerging international system.
We need someone who is realistic and brutal. Not some wannabe for that island off the coast of America who mouths platittudes about "standing up for Democracy."
