Each time the United States and the United Kingdom have a general election, the far-left candidates delineate themselves by their domestic socialist, oftentimes Marxist rhetoric. These tend to be attacks against global capitalism, free trade, local education and Christian values. What is amazingly missed by many, even in the media, is a focus on these candidates' foreign policy, or lack thereof.
The West is afflicted twice over by far left candidates in the two leading countries of the Anglosphere, whose foreign and national security policies should end any rational discussion of them as commanders of the free world. In the United States, this is represented by the rising campaign of Sen. Bernie Sanders. If the Obama Doctrine is a combination of a declinist mentality meeting the absence of strategy, the Sanders Doctrine would be the same thing on steroids.
