Bernie Sanders Shrugs Off Albright's Foreign Policy Slam

With just two days till the New Hampshire primary, Senator Bernie Sanders is pushing back against allegations that he doesn't have enough foreign policy credentials to become president of the United States.

"It's the same argument used against Barack Obama in 2008," Sanders told NBC News' Kate Snow. "He doesn't have any experience in foreign policy. But it didn't work then, won't work now."

The Vermont Democrat said that while he doesn't have a foreign policy advisor on his campaign, there is one in his U.S. Senate office and touts his Iraq war vote as a good sign of his judgment.

"Not only did I vote against that war, which was the right vote, I helped lead the opposition to that war," he said.

While on the stump for Hillary Clinton in New Hampshire on Saturday, former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright questioned Sanders interest in foreign policy saying, "it's not his thing."
