Biden would handle Crisis best. Sanders best to avoid a new war.




Interesting.

Hmmm. Handle an international crisis more wisely or avoid war... both important, but maybe an edge to the importance of handing international crisis most wisely.

In any case...

the polls are what the polls are.

Not the actually likelihood.

The poll's results just show the public's perception of the candidates.

One is to provoke war by taking provocative actions and engaging in bellicose rhetoric.

The other is for powerful states to abdicate their responsibilities on the international stage by embracing isolation, appeasing dangerous dictators, and creating power vacuums for bad actors to fill.

Of two evils, chose neither.
