HILLARY GROUP - Sanders' foreign policy speech today in Utah shut out of MSM by (Original Post) misterhighwasted Mar 2016 OP
Did he think Utah required a foreign policy? yallerdawg Mar 2016 #1

Oh well. Why did he wait so long? Every other candidate is at livetohike Mar 2016 #7
Or, why do it today, when he knows everyone else is at AIPAC? LisaM Mar 2016 #10
Exactly. I'm convinced he is just in this as an ego stroking exercise. N/t livetohike Mar 2016 #13
Well with his lack of FP knowledge this is more likely the reason. misterhighwasted Mar 2016 #18

JUST a few hours before a Cnn TownHall. Remember that. so he still owes the votes a foreign policy speech.
Then again--maybe it was to be a rehash of the video that the Israel Conference refused to air today. just thinking of what it could be.

Guess we'll never know why he avoids at all cost, when a foreign policy question is lobbed at him.

We're left with our assumptions then.

He's been very evasive on the topic. Is Goldman Sachs really responsible for the refugee crisis in Europe?

Also, "Wall Street money has corrupted our elections!"

That covers it. Apparently, that covers everything.

Republican AIPAC speeches are predictable as hell. By contrast, I don't know what the hell Bernie is going to say or do about foreign policy, and neither, I think, do his supporters. MSM should have showed his speech.

At least he's now got a FP script to stump on.

the AIPIC conference. Now he can complain yet again how he doesn't have MSM coverage. Whiner-in-Chief. Guess he found out who is more important.

His FP video will be cleaned up & edited & he can read from a prepared script with no audience to judge by applause, or lack of.

The AIPAC coverage on both MSNBC and CNN is ridiculous. Kasich droned on and on making sure he hit all the AIPAC issues and they have a lot of issues.

Transcripts of Bernie's FP thoughts are online somewhere.
He can't say anything that would impress me as being a master on FP.
I hear it was well rehearsed.
Meh, bernie
