      There likely won't be an "issue-specific" forum or debate on foreign policy, even though that's the issue area over which presidents have the most unilateral authority. Candidates are competing to command most powerful military in world history, but it's usually an afterthought

      The lack of emphasis on foreign policy during campaigns -- ambiguity from the candidates, inattention from the media -- allows the "foreign policy community" to subsequently fill the void and enter the incoming administration to carry out whatever their pre-existing agenda is

          @TulsiGabbard is the only candidate who demonstrates deep understanding and independent thinking on foreign policy, and that's why they can't let her win. #Tulsi2020

          Best example of this is Bush 43’s campaign promise of pursuing a “humble foreign policy.” 9/11 happens and, all of a sudden, the war machine is like “thank you very much, but we’ll take it from here.”

          🙄Hmm...the people "taking it from here" shared a history with Bush 41. Even Reagan/41 era indicted ones got on 43's staff. Jeb Bush is a signatory of the war machine's foreign policy blueprint: "Rebuilding America's Defenses". So 🤷‍♀️about 43's "humble" foreign policy intent.

          I think the void got filled a while ago and has been carefully guarded ever since from any public debate or nosy politician.

          What is the foreign policy community's pre-existing agenda? Is Trump a victim of it?

          We talk about anything BUT foreign policy, because our current foreign policy is the default position and that's not up for debate.

          I was quietly relieved when McMaverick lost to Obama but I didnt allow Obama to break my heart- Mostly because he was clear about his FP during the campaign: Supported Israel's illegal expansion program loved him some NATO Hard on for Iran and Cuba Maintain GI's on Korean penin
