From the looks of things lately, though, it seems the American people have matured a bit and learned the importance of foreign policy expertise in a volatile world. From her years of public service, as well as her tenure as Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton has extensive, in-depth foreign policy experience; Sanders has none.
Here's the latest word from CNN:
(CNN)In
a Democratic field that has winnowed to just three candidates, Hillary
Clinton has regained a dominant lead over Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders,
topping him by a 28-point margin, her widest in CNN/ORC polling since
July.
Clinton leads Sanders 58%
to 30%, with former Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley registering just 2%,
according to a CNN/ORC Poll released Friday.
The
poll finds Clinton widely seen as better able to handle matters of
foreign policy than Sanders, an advantage that has likely helped the
former secretary of state as global affairs and national security have
gained prominence in the presidential campaign. Broad majorities of
Democratic voters report that they trust Clinton most on foreign policy
(74%) and handling ISIS (59%), and as best able to handle the
responsibilities that come with being commander-in-chief (64%).
