Gabbard is way to the right just like Zeller and Webb. Democrats like Zell Miller and Webb are the reason the Democratic Party is not more to the left than it is.

Hodges lies about and distorts Tulsi's record to suit her own purposes. If she's going to lie about that, what else is she going to lie about? Basically she's just trying to get publicity so she can sell more books. You're buying a bad bill of goods.

Your cheering for this liar sounds like revenge for Tulsi supporting Bernie instead of Hillary, because Hillary supports regime-change wars that we should stop engaging in. Tulsi was warned not to go against the Clintons and this is the result.

Tulsi's a progressive, life-long Democrat who cares deeply about the issues that matter to us as Democrats.

She has a progressive Democrat 'lifetime' rating of over 90%.

Against regime-change interventionist wars,
Pro-equality,
Pro-women's rights,
Pro-early and higher education,
For breaking up Wall Street’s big banks
Pro-Glass-Steagall,
Against warrantless spying by the NSA,
Voted for protecting net neutrality,
Pro-criminal justice system
Voted against Patriot Act
Anti-TPP,
Anti-DARK Act,
Pro-Brady Bill 100% rating, 7% NRA
Pro-GMO labeling,
Against cuts to Medicare & Social Security,
Pro-protecting our planet via clean energy and sustainable farming to combat climate change.

I'd think with her qualifications and progressive stances, you'd love her.

but our group members who live in Hawaii and are represented by her don't hold her in the same regard as you.
