Are you serious? How long have you been following politics for? If you didn't notice, there was almost no difference between George W. Bush and Obama on foreign or domestic policy. The establishment politicians that have been in power for decades simply play to the base during primaries, all the while rigging the primary process against reform candidates and then move right back to the elite consensus after the election.

there's been a bipartisan consensus on foreign policy for most of the past 20 years; but saying the same thing for Healthcare, immigration, tax policy, or whatever is not true
