The current political nonsense that is going on concerning the Iran agreement is nothing more than a side show. Making reference to Neville Chamberlin's appeasement to Hitler is nonsense. If England went to war with Germany in 1938, they would have got their ass kicked. Germany was ready for war. England wasn't.
We have been ready for and participated in wars all to often, since the 50's We are a super power. Iran isn't. There is nothing holding us to the agreement, if Iran cheats. They cheat, and their nuclear sites are history, if not by us by Israel, and they know it.
Maybe now that Turkey has gotten involved against ISIS, the other Arab countries in the region will do the same.
Again, you are more familiar with the Republicans that I. Are Trump, Bush, Walker, or Kasich hawks, and will they send our ground troops against ISIS as more than just advisors?

Not sure what you mean by
"you are more familiar with the Republicans that I" and can only make assumptions, but it appears you are a Democrat who is not familiar with anything Republican which is a bit upsetting that you do not even consider another viewpoint, but...
Having said that, my own personal concerns and as much as you would like someone to speak for the candidates, we cannot......I am concerned regarding the IRAN situation...
....nuclear proliferation in the ME as a result. Israel already has the capabilities; Saudi Arabia has said they will build up arms, and more will join. Since it is not a known factor that Iran
WILL have nuclear capabilities and the only thing unknown is the time frame, then it would be in their best interest to build up their own supply as Iran is the leading state that sponsors terrorism in the region.
....They have not promised to back off in their activities surrounding terrorism. Fact is they now will have use of ICBM's and other arms plus a lot of cash. Russia has already started talking to them about supplying them with arms and have said so publicly. We know how they feel about our country and our interests thus I can only assume more trouble in the mideast as a result of this deal.
You also ignored all the problems in the ME.....
.....Where is our coalition of 60 countries ?
.....How about Libya
.....What about Syria
You surely are aware of all the looming problems there. Libya is our fault, Yemen is our fault. A continuation of those same kind of policies will only lead to more failures. I assume since you did not address Syria that you feel it will just work out ??? We have said a lot and did very little and I sure hope you do not feel we should continue in that vein.
You do not mention ISIS which according to a new report I saw this week, is growing in might despite a few setbacks. I am concerned about our coalition and where it is in this fight.
Just a few notes on your post.
