Did you read the the article you posted?

What is she saying?
I extend my congratulations to Narendra Modi on the occasion of his being sworn in to serve a second term as India’s Prime Minister. India is the world’s largest democracy, where the recent elections saw over 500 million people cast their votes all across India at nearly 1 million polling places,” said Rep. Tulsi Gabbard. “Through the last several years, we have seen the U.S.-India partnership has continued to grow in areas like regional security and trade.

“It is very important that the United States and India continue to work together to solve some of the most pressing issues facing our world, such as combating climate change, preventing nuclear war and nuclear proliferation, protecting our oceans and rivers, improving the economic well-being of our people, as well as protecting individual freedoms and rights.”
I sense Trump levels of denial from you.

You mean Trump level denials from you?

We may not like it. But we do have to work with the democratically elected PM of the biggest Democracy on earth.

EDIT:

That last line is an appeal to treat everyone the same.
Whether you may be Hindu, Muslim or Christian.

We cannot control what they do there.

The US has lost its standing as a World Leader.

A Bernie presidency can change everything in the right direction.
India and other countries working with us need us. We can put pressure on them about Human Rights.
But we have to get that right here first.

Biden will be a disaster. Warren is similar to Hillary in Foreign policy I understand. So that is a concern for me.

Excuse me? You're white arent you? Your views in general never seem particularly aware of the world around you.

The idea that India needs us is highly debatable. India needed the US more in the Cold War than now and the US never delivered.

As an Indian in the US who follows Indian politics, you couldn't be more wrong.

On the surface it doesn't seem smart for the Dems to yet again play the holier than thou with Gabbard. I know it shouldn't be a factor but I think she would be a massive force for the Republicans if they ever convince her to switch sides.
You're assuming she would win re-election

That graphic sorts of makes sense until Booker, top 5 in polling aggregates. It’s like they went ‘oops it’s too white and womany, let’s throw in a black dude’.

gabbard sucks and no one really likes her so why is the previous nominee attacking her on the one area that she is sort of okay in? its almost hard to imagine how democrats lose elections
This. Should've been attacking her on her views on gay marriages or Assad friendship but has seemingly posted a conspiracy theory on very little evidence. I'm not even sure why Hillary was talking about Gabbard anyway, she was a complete non entity in these elections and was getting very less media coverage.

Yes. I saw that video. I donated to her Senate run too as many did. Thought she should run for president someday.
She did not endorse Bernie when she could have in 2016.

Firstly Bernie has been fighting for working people all his life. She was a Republican until 1996.

This cycle if she was sincere about the cause, she should simply have backed Bernie instead of running on a similar platform.

She has compromised on M4A. Otherwise she would not be working on presenting her own plans soon.
And she is all in for military spending and getting money from corporations as she has assured the DNC.

How come Biden, so long the frontrunner & the most well-known candidate, has received so little money compared to the others?
