While I agree that only Democrats could get support for TPP and NAFTA, George H.W. Bush and George W. Bush were Presidents when they launched the two wars in Iraq --- I doubt a President Gore would have responded to 9-11 (if he hadn't stopped it before it occurred) with a war of choice in Iraq ----
I hate the lesser of two evils approach and whenever possible I vote and work against it --- but even Noam Chomsky had supported trying to get rid of the awful G.W.Bush administration in 2004 -- In the early 1930s, Communists were so interested in fighting the "social fascist" Social Democrats in Germany that they actually thought Hitler would just be a prelude to their successful revolution. They paid for that error with their lives .... I think fascism -- whether behind Trump, Cruz or Rubio coupled with the current Congress and Supreme Court is worth resisting -- in fact it MUST be resisted. (I still think Chris Hedges book AMERICAN FASCISTS is worth reading as a cautionary tale.) I even support working for Clinton should she beat out Bernie for the nomination. (And if Bernie wins the nomination, it will almost be a "structural reform" for the entire US polity --- very much worth fighting for)
