On the war in Iraq Root says it's a complicated issue. Root believes the answer must involve a combination of nuance, compromise, and common sense. Root in fact believes that we should show our true colors and request the Iraqi people to vote on America's role in Iraq. If the Iraqi people vote for U.S. troops to stay, we should still make plans to get out of Iraq as soon as possible but we should at all times put pressure on the Iraqi government to achieve certain benchmarks.

Root believes that there are some important questions that need to be investigated and answered such as:
Why isn't the war being funded as promised by President Bush by Iraqi oil?
Why aren't Saudi Arabia, UAE, Kuwait, and other moderate Arab countries paying thier fair share for the Iraq war?

Root says that we should not learn the lesson that war is bad or wrong in all circumstances. At times war is necessary. Freedom isn't free - unfortunately we must fight for freedom, rights, and liberty. The war on terror is real and Root will not allow the United States to lose the war on terror.

But the lessons we should learn from Iraq is that we can not occupy a nation post-war. Root does not support nation building and believes that the Government wastes money. In fact Government by it's nature is corrupt. We need more oversight of defense contractors and private companies like Halliburton.
