    I would say pay attention to Biden/Harris for 2020. Biden has been courting the Wall Street donors. He will be the establishment DNC pick with Kamala Harris as running mate.

    I'm afraid that it is going to be a Biden / O'rourke ticket; simply put if they can swing TX it'd be huge for the Dem. party. I expect that Biden will not announce until after a few of the debates have transpired. He is their best shot in the end...

    You should be afraid. Far more Americans hate trump than love him. All the dems need is a half-decent candidate to rally behind and Trump is finished. Even if 100% of Trumpfolk vote, they will be outnumbered 2 to 1. This is what happens when you're kind of an ******* president. You build a strong base, but an even stronger opposition.

    First we must understand the rules for Democrat candidates entering the arena.

    1) White males need not apply.
    2) Birth certificates must be presented on entry.
    3) If you are white but identify or have identified as black, Asian, Hispanic or Native American you are disqualified.
    4) If you are transgender you have jumped too far ahead, we have not had our first gay candidate yet (not counting Obama).
    5) You must fill out DNC Form 420 stating that you have never been photographed wearing blackface, Klan robes, Gucci, Prada, or in the presence of Louie Farrakhan or Rev Wright. If you have, please fill out DNC Form 666 Waiver.
    6) Please explain any criminal accusations or convictions or other problematic resume items on your records to include tax evasion, adultery, bastard children, DUI's, Hit and Runs, sexual assault, rape, or leaving a girl to die in a body of water on DNC Application #46.
    7) If you do not receive debate questions before the first debate, you are not our chosen candidate and should refrain from further campaigning.

    Actually I've already started looking around at the democratic field. It all started with a YouTube recommended video about Andrew Yang. I liked it. Now I'm leaning towards voting for him in the Democratic primary.

    Though I'm not sure I want to identify with the "Yang Gang" movement. What kind of slogan is that? I like the Yang platform not the weird grassroots movement going on.

    I am ninety five percent certain that the Democrats cannot win in 2020 so my suggestion would be to discuss damage control..........
    I am thinking that Oprah would be the best that the Dems could possibly talk into facing President Trump........

    She is wisely staying out of the race for now......... the other Democratic Presidential hopefulls would eat her up like piranha if she comes in too early.
