Turn to Libertarians

The present national presidential discussion should include policy of when to use our military. Sun Tzu, born 545 B.C. and author of “The Art of War,” said “You can fight a war for a long time or make your nation strong. You can not do both.”

Both Bush/Cheney and Obama/Clinton have violated this historically accurate observation. Both do not recognize basic human resistance to outsider oppression and invasions. Clinton was the chief U.S. architect of the disastrous Libyan intervention and supported Bush/Cheney in Iraq.

Both Democrat and Republican immediate administrations have doubled our national debt without building for our future. Both have not dealt with immigration reform nor reduced the 47 million on food stamps. Middle class real income has sharply declined. Student debt is discouraging. Suicides related to our military and veterans are staggering and shameful.

I lost my brother, a medic, in Vietnam. Both Clinton and Trump need to visit the Vietnam Wall and tell those brave men and women that they died for nothing. Our present political elites have learned nothing.

Popular former Republican Governors Gary Johnson/Bill Weld’s message (Libertarian 2016) deserve your and our nation’s attention.
