So basically, she takes the same view as Ron Paul.
I guess that makes her radical alright.
I have never seen Ron Paul compare our actions throughout history as being similar to Nazi's
nor did Paul push for military action in Lybia in order to remove a leader that was an ally to the US for 15+ years just to replace him the Muslim Brotherhood (which is very closely tied to and a financer or Al Qaeda and the Taliban). Nor have I seen Paul suggest we send troops to intervene in the Israel-Palistinian conflict.
So yes from my prior experience she is a radical.

All due respect, but I call BS.
Ron Paul is not anti-Israel. The fact that he is not willing to pander creates such garbage.
So I respectfully disagree.

Ron Paul is an anti-Israeli radical. Samantha Power is another anti-Israeli radical. That's the comparison I was making.
"I'm the one who defends the Israel. I don't want Israel to be beholding to us," Rep. Paul told Fox News Anchor Megan Kelly.
Well, consider history. In 1981, Israel bombed an Iraqi nuke plant. Rep. Paul went against both the U.N. and president Ronald Reagan when he defended Israel's right to defend itself.
Paul seems to believe that the strongest stance with Israel is for the United States to no longer try to control that nation's every move.
That brings us to the second issue. Clearly Ron Paul is anti-Israel, detractors say, because after all he wants to deny Israel foreign aid.
"To me foreign aid is taking money from poor people in this country and giving it to rich people in other countries, no matter how well motivated it is," said Rep. Paul during the CNN Republican debate.
When Anderson Cooper asked if Paul would cut foreign aid to Israel, Paul answered, "I would cut all foreign aid. I would treat everyone equally and fairly."
I believe that Israel is one of our most important friends in the world. And the views that I hold have many adherents in Israel today. Two of the tenets of a true Zionist are “self-determination” and “self-reliance.” I do not believe we should be Israel’s master but, rather, her friend. We should not be dictating her policies and announcing her negotiating positions before talks with her neighbors have even begun. . .
I am the one candidate who would respect Israel’s sovereignty and not try to dictate to her about how she should deal with her neighbors. I supported Israel’s right to attack the Iraqi nuclear reactor in the 1980s, and I opposed President Obama’s attempt to dictate Israel’s borders this year.

Actually it would not have mattered who Obama selected....the righty's would have found something wrong with whoever he chose.
The title should read...Obama haters find another reason to b*tch and moan. Then the usual haters can just copy and paste their comments here...just change the names or places..

Hold up...just one point. You do realize that the former leader of Libya ordered that aircraft blown up over Scotland..Lockerbie. He was a terrorist. The Muslim brotherhood haven't ordered any aircraft full of people blown up.

Yeah he was at one time, but after we Bombed Tripoli into the stone age and killed his daughter(or son?) we went from being a terrorist to being just plain terrified. After that we had no more problems out of him and actually used some air fields in Libya as FOB's for some certain missions.
While the MB hasn't ordered any aircraft blown up they have financed a great majority of the Taliban and Al Qaeda for many years. They have also recently ramped up their anti-American rhetoric.

Seems an awfully lofty post for someone that was not born in the US

Does not make sense to me that someone born in a country other than The United States would qualify to be UN Ambassador for the United States.

So, just for discussion sake what makes someone so called "anit Israel"?? Does that mean you cant disagree with whatever they do?? Does that mean that if you have problem with a "sect" of the Israel religion??
And focusing on a old newsletter that has already been discredited by RP as a link in your post is a troll attempt.
On topic, placing two people who are related in a major Government position=
CIA
Home Land Security
Considering the major situations around the World that Obama was made to be President and take care of this is perfect situation for the Husband/Wife team.
