As Sen. Sanders delivered his foreign policy address he seemed to be trying to reanimate a progressive tradition based on global peace and social justice that has been dormant for decades, prompting the liberal magazine The Nation to hail it as “one of the finest speeches of his career.” The ostensible focus of his speech was Pres.Trump, but in many ways his true target was the Democratic foreign policy establishment, which has espoused liberal interventionism on behalf of democracy and human rights since the 1990s. “As we seek to renew America’s commitment to promote human rights and human dignity around the world, we must be a living example here at home,” Sanders declared. “We cannot speak with the moral authority the world needs if we do not struggle to achieve the ideal we are holding out for others.”
