Ron just went on Megyn Kelley and gave the same answer he's been giving on Iran which is the main reason people call his foreign policy terrible and call him dangerous/crazy. Ron got positive responses on "bring the troops home" lines with that SC focus group during his NH speech. That isn't the issue.
He MUST and we MUST clarify this issue and package it in a way that is acceptable to mainstream Republicans. This is a sticking point to a massive chunk of Republican voters and old people which we MUST win over to ever win this election. I'm not saying he should be a war monger - but he should stop giving empathy for Iran. He should use Rand's approach 100% on this topic and give examples of the Panama Canal as well as his lone stance as the only one who supported Israel's sovereignty in the 80s when they bombed Iraq. He MUST say "if our country is directly threatened and the congress declares war, I will use the power of the best military on earth, compromise the threat, and bring our boys and girls home without wasting money nation-building as this current administration is doing." (he would win votes over a lot quicker if he put the brunt of the blame on Obama btw)
If this isn't done by debate time our surge will end and we will just end up celebrating moral victories of increasing our support. We are in this to win this. This must be addressed. Someone needs to coach Ron on this. He gets too caught up in his success to realize he has to be a little political with parts of his message if he plans on winning a very necessary chunk of the republican vote.
