Democratic candidates

This discussion thread was locked as off-topic by TexasTowelie (a host of the General Discussion forum).

I think each one should be asked if they will investigate President Bush and company over Iraq war crimes. I think this is important at least to have an investigation that would be available into our history even if jail is not the result. I think it would be important to have documentation of the hearing and answers to pertinent questions. Do you think all democratic nominees should be asked this?

They're still recovering from their association's enabling of war crimes:
