This rather lengthy video from the Jimmy Dore Show offers an excellent example of anti-war candidates are up against when appearing on corporate news networks. Megan McCain is about as revolting as you can get, and it's so obvious that she is nothing more than a shill for the Military-Industrial Complex.

Tulsi Gabbard does a decent job of educating the panel of The View about the consequences of America's interventionalist, regime-change foreign policy. However, she doesn't go far enough. She needs to admit that these wars are never about helping people in other countries, and are always about money and resources.

Amen, I've been saying that forever! How about fix America before we try to fix other countries(And completely F them up in the process). That's billions we could use to invest into our poor neighborhoods, giving them 'decent' schools and opportunities so crime is not they only way to sustain their life.

I agree. And we never "fix other countries," we only make them worse.

The intention is never to fix. Endless war creates profit.
