"Not as bad" is still bad and an anti-war stance (backed up by a credible history of following through on those promises) and use of our military in an exclusively defensive manner are the most important qualities I look for in a candidate. From his continued funding of both the Iraq and Afghanistan Wars, to his constant support of countless Western nations violent efforts to reshape the political structure of a country for their own gain (even if it means civilian casualties and a mass refugee exodus), to the constant reference to two lame duck votes against starting two wars as the only examples of him having an anti-war stance, it is clear Bernie Sanders does not have the history to back up his claims.
How can I believe he wants to offer what I feel should be basic human rights like medical care and education when he doesn't even have a credible or consistent track record when it comes to an issue as big as war? Obama promised the same stuff and all he did was make sure everyone that can pay for insurance has to, and you have to pay more.
