insurgency in the history of warfare. 85% of the people reject the taliban. and they want no part of power sharing in a democratic government. why is that? they couldn't even win a single district. they couldn't even get one person, that's how unpopular these people are we've got to keep our focus on that. what we want is a stable and secure afghanistan and we want to continue with a democratic form of government that has been in place now for the better part of a decade then of course, we want as much as possible a secure afghanistan and we do not want the al qaeda and isis to be able to have a safe haven from which they can attack the united states as took place on 9/11. that is the reason why we are in afghanistan and that's the reason for 18 years that we have prevented that attack from taking place again and we have to stay focused on what the mission is. the mission is to protect the american people at home. >> sandra: great to have you on this morning, appreciate your
