We need reform at the Pentagon to ensure its solvency

We've seen what misguided policy can do to our military men and women abroad during the Obama and Clinton administration. First in Egypt and Libya, and now Syria, where policies have put more of our men and women at risk without a clear exit strategy, or a path to victory--especially in regard to the rules of engagement in these foreign interventions. I will not support sending more of our sons and daughters into harms way abroad without a clear path to victory and an exit strategy. That's my first commitment to veterans.

Veterans should also have private sector medical options so that no soldier ever falls through the cracks. We also need reform at the Pentagon to ensure its solvency, so it can always adequately support our troops on the battlefield. Procurement, civilian employment and pension programs should all be improved for the average GI.
