Gabbard stepped down from her post as a vice chairwoman of the Democratic National Committee in the primaries to support Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders.
Gabbard, who disagreed with Hillary Clinton’s foreign policy stance, said she endorsed Sanders mainly because of his more prudent approach to military involvement broad.
“As a veteran of two Middle East deployments, I know firsthand the cost of war,” Gabbard said in a video for the Sanders campaign. “I know how important it is that our commander in chief has the sound judgment required … to know when to use America’s military power and when not to use that power.”
She announced she would vote for Clinton days after the DNC ended.
So this is embarrassing but now I can't find the article I was reading that stated she was the top choice. Maybe now? Going to look some more. I know Breitbart was pushing for her over Romney.
