Marco Rubio Says He'll Do Hillary Clinton's Foreign Policy—but Better

sneaky bastard.  
The old ‘labels are obsolete,’ and the GOP has no ‘strategic foreign policy view,’ says the senator. He details his vision—which he acknowledges hews closely to Hillary Clinton’s.
Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) intends to chart a new foreign policy course for the GOP, and it rejects the policies of both hawks and isolationists within his own party.
“It has become starkly apparent to me that we lack any sort of strategic foreign policy view, and when I say ‘we,’ I mean the country in general but in particular the Republican Party,” Rubio told The Daily Beast in an exclusive interview Wednesday. “There’s this false choice between the labels ‘isolationist’ and ‘hawks.’ I think, frankly, those labels are obsolete in the foreign policy debates we now have. They have no applicability at all.”
Rubio laid out his vision in a detailed speech Wednesday morning at the American Enterprise Institute, a conservative Washington think tank. The senator is advocating an increase in foreign aid, diplomacy, trade, active engagement, and promotion of democracy and human rights abroad.
he is still a republican and if he does not still follow their manifesto you will see an onslaught of attacks by his people if you don't then bet that nothing has changed and he still holds to their "PRINCIPLES" formerly known as "VALUES".
he is or was the T-P darling you know what they are about so if you here any noise he isn't their answer to sliced bread.  notice how republicans talk about human rights abroad but never here in America just the opposite they are in full tilt to strip "we the people" of rights they want to assure for foreigners, how American is that?
The Rubio approach, a balanced foreign policy based on various tools, matches closely with what Hillary Clinton set forth as secretary of state in her vision of "smart power," which was based on the idea that defense, diplomacy, and development should be equal pillars of U.S foreign policy.
Rubio acknowledged the similarities but said he would be able to succeed where Clinton and the rest of the Obama team failed to follow through.
that is a spoiler alert, he's lying if it were anywhere near what Hilary wants than he's off the team their endgame never involves "we the people" coming out ahead. as to it being better, better for who them? recognize
