War and Foreign Policy
The war in Iraq was sold to us with false information. The area is more dangerous now than when we
entered it. We destroyed a regime hated by our direct enemies, the jihadists, and created thousands of new
recruits for them. This war has cost more than 3,000 American lives, thousands of seriously wounded, and
hundreds of billions of dollars. We must have new leadership in the White House to ensure this never
happens again.
Both Jefferson and Washington warned us about entangling ourselves in the affairs of other nations. Today,
we have troops in 130 countries. We are spread so thin that we have too few troops defending America.
And now, there are new calls for a draft of our young men and women.
We can continue to fund and fight no-win police actions around the globe, or we can refocus on securing
America and bring the troops home. No war should ever be fought without a declaration of war voted upon
by the Congress, as required by the Constitution.
Under no circumstances should the U.S. again go to war as the result of a resolution that comes from an
unelected, foreign body, such as the United Nations.
Too often we give foreign aid and intervene on behalf of governments that are despised. Then, we become
despised. Too often we have supported those who turn on us, like the Kosovars who aid Islamic terrorists,
or the Afghan jihads themselves, and their friend Osama bin Laden. We armed and trained them, and now
we’re paying the price.
At the same time, we must not isolate ourselves. The generosity of the American people has been felt
around the globe. Many have thanked God for it, in many languages. Let us have a strong America,
conducting open trade, travel, communication, and diplomacy with other nations.
