"Any potential Commander-in-Chief has to be prepared to send sons and daughters of this country to fight--and possibly die."
Yes. True. Isn't is their duty to also consider the nature and necessity and viability of the war?
The VP Dem candidate Biden's son, Beau Biden, is shipping off to Iraq also. That seems to be forgotten in the current campaign coverage. And perhaps that is possibly sorta kinda because his father didn't make a publicity event of it. (Oh, gee, I have to admit that Beau introduced his father at the Dem convention, but did Joe & Beau do a photo-opp since?) And Beau's older than Track and has a great job. No credit to this son of a candidate?
My focus is: Who's going to end this reckless war? And do the best to get us out of other wars? And finally find bin Laden?
Somehow I just don't think that would be Sarah (and Todd).
