Dem 2020 Prez Contenders

[Paul Motter]

I was just reading Nate Silver and his staff picking contenders for the 2020 race.. Here they are (not in Order):

• Elizabeth Warren
• Kamala Harris
• Joe Biden
• Bernie Sanders -
• Kirsten Gillibrand
• Cory Booker

Based on this, I don't see anyone that I think is a shoe-in. Here are my personal thoughts

• Elizabeth Warren - Ultra Liberal but very experienced
• Kamala Harris - well spoken, intelligent but a little too cagey
• Joe Biden - leading in Iowa polls
• Bernie Sanders - a proven contender
• Kirsten Gillibrand - attractive and articulate - but a real BS artist like Hillary
• Cory Booker - African American but with personal baggage

Let's hear your thoughts:

I don't support fecal bacteria for public office, myself.

 

[Meister]

None of the above, I'll vote for Trump.

I hear they are all Satan worshipers and eat live babies. Stay tuned for more bulletins to parrot from the Tard Newsfeed.

None of the above, I'll vote for Trump.

None of the above, I'll vote for none of the above.

Please show some respect. I would really like to see this poll and thread taken seriously, whether I agree or not. Thank you!

Good luck with that.

Can you imagine Hoaxahontis or everybody's crazy uncle? Joe Biden ain't been right since recovering from two brain embolisms. The media covered up for him but it seems that Biden is more guilty of inappropriate touching than Kavanaugh when he slapped Hillary on the ass during a campaign tour.

I actually think those two are probably the strongest contenders. I also think Trump would make mincemeat out of both of them (all of them for different reasons), but you never know.

What democrats see in their own candidates is often surprising - they don't seem to understand that just promising everyone free stuff is a good way to run a government.

Starting at the beginning, the dems still have "super-delegates" so the dem voters can be considered 3/5 of a GOP voter. I prefer the GOP where all votes count equally.

That said, the dems will never coalesce enough to rally behind only one candidate, like Biden (old white guy), Bernie (socialist), Warren (another female who never ran anything and thinks she can run the US), Camela/Kirsten/Spartacus (rookies who could not run a lemonade stand, like Obama).

The dems have a rough choice in 2020 but the debates should be hilarious, all claiming to tax the rich and lavish benefits on the proletariat, free healthcare, free college, guaranteed income, and free Obamaphones again

 

[Paul Motter]

Still dealing with 2016 drama, Democrats vote to strip superdelegates of some of their power in 2020

The Democratic Party voted to limit the power of so-called “superdelegates” in selecting the party’s presidential nominee.

The Democratic National Committee in a meeting in Chicago on Saturday voted to approve the change, which prevents superdelegates from voting on the first ballot in a contested national convention.

Only pledged delegates — whose votes are decided by the primary or caucus results for their states or territories — will get to vote the first time around at the Democratic national convention, where the party picks its presidential nominee. Superdelegates — DNC members, elected officials, and party leaders who are unpledged and basically get to vote for whomever they want — won’t get to vote on the first ballot if the convention is contested.​

Super-delegates are still super-delegates. No one in 2020 will be nominated on the first ballot, it will be a slow paring down of candidates. Your 3/5 vote is irrelevant since the politburo will do the formal party nominating. You just vote as told, and like it. Anyone not voting for the party candidate will be punished severely.

I guess you are ignorant of the fact (gee, what a surprise) that the GOP has super delegates, too. Each state gets three of them.

That said, the dems will never coalesce enough to rally behind only one candidate, like Biden (old white guy), Bernie (socialist), Warren (another female who never ran anything and thinks she can run the US), Camela/Kirsten/Spartacus (rookies who could not run a lemonade stand, like Obama).

I guess you are ignorant of the fact (gee, another surprise ) that the Federal Lifeline Assistance program preceded Obama and still exists.

They are Trumphones now.

But you go ahead and keep yourself worked up about them negroes, mm-kay?

Speaking of "free shit": US Cabinet member and wife expensed European travel under false pretenses: report

More "free shit": Scott Pruitt’s $43,000 soundproof phone booth violated spending laws, federal watchdog finds[

oh trump loving poorly educated deplorable... that tired ol youtube again? don'tcha know them thar ' free 'obamaphones actually was a program started under ronny reagan?

yep it's true! google it.

 

[Paul Motter]

I don't recall the Repubs having super delegates, actually.

When I said free stuff, I meant I don't think promising free college, health care, medicare, childcare, $15 minimum wage for all, maternity leave for both parents for two weeks, etc is a workable platform for a working government. I do admit Trump is blowing out our budget right now, but that would be even worse.

As far as crooks in politics taking stuff - nothing new there at all. I heard Bill Clinton got something like $750,000 for one speech - in Moscow, some time close to the election.
