I am not a citizen, I am here on Visa so I do not vote in the elections. I always enjoy reading about politics and world news. I read an article that was very interesting and I will update whenever I read more updates. Here is a list of everyone currently running in the next USA election Pete Buttigeg - 37 mayor or South Bend Indiana Julian Castro - 44 former housing secretary former Mayor of San Antonio John Delaney - 55 former congress man of Maryland former businessman Tulsi Gabbard - 37 congress woman of Hawaii Kristen Gillibrand - 52 senator of New York Kamala Harris - 54 senator of California Elizabeth Warren - 69 senator of Massachusetts Andrew Yang - 44 former tech executive Cory Booker - 49 senator of New Jersey Amy Klobuchar - 58 senator of Minnesota Marianne Williamson - 66 spiritual author of Texas The following people are listed as all but certain John Hickenlooper - 66 former govenor of Colorado The following are labeled as likely to run Joe Biden Jr - 76 former vVce El Comandante of the United States Steve Bullock - 56 govenor of Montana Eric Garcetti - 47 mayor of Los Angeles Bernie Sanders - 77 senator of Vermont These people are listed as might run Micheal Bloomberg - 76 billionaire media executive former mayor of New York Sherrod Brown - 66 senator of Ohio Jay Inslee - 68 govenor of Washington state Mitch Landrieu - 58 former mayor of New Orleans Terry McAuliffe - 61 former of govener of a Virginia Jeff Merkley - 62 senator of Oregon Bero O'Rourke - 46 former Congress man of Texas Howard Shultz - 65 former Chief Executive of Starbucks Following are unlikely to run Micheal Bennet - 54 former senator of Colorado Hillary Clinton - 71 former secretary of state Bill De Blaiso - 57 mayor of new York Eric H Holden Jr - 68 former attorney General John Kerry - 75 former secretary of state
In another article they said that if Shultz does run then that would be the best oppurtunity for the incumbent to stay in office.
(Sticks head round door) So just the usual suspects, mainly old white folk. Where's the young, dynamic whippersnappers? Jeff Bezos/Steve Jobs types who will just get it done? Disappointed (leaves).
You may be right. But Harris would get a good turnout. Unfortunately she would also provide bring out a good turn for TR.ump as well.
Doubt it's that. Some people want to stay out of direct political roles. They would rather play king maker (And yes I know it could be a Women that ends up in the role, but it's an old term.)
Will vote MRTRUMP again. Don't necessary agree with everything he says, but he don't care to throw gas on the fire. Living life's lessons sometimes that's a necessary and we are living in those times.
Assuming that the above figure can be trusted, that is more than Dubya and Mister Niceguy received during their mid-terms. Then again, what do the Democrats have to offer? They are turning on themselves, and now starting to realise (too late!) that talking down to people does not win them votes. They need their own Rudeman, but they (of course) will stick to 'tried and trusted'. I imagine that their strategy meetings go something like this:
Trying to see some sense in what A O-C has said, and to be fair she has the basic idea right that tax needs to work better and that the super-rich need to pay more. However, when Nigel Farage said the same thing about UKIP possibly introducing a 30% flat tax, he was called an idiot. She wants the same type of policy but is asking too much (70% tax is a no-no,and people will just take themselves and their business/businesses elsewhere) and cannot see sense. Start printing debt-free and Rothschild-removed money and then we might get somewhere - JFK did (at least until that fateful day...)
Then it's her move, although one wonders what dirt DT has on the Dems... remember, he moved in the same circles as his opponents and he is bound to know a few secrets that certain people want keeping quiet. He could also go out JFK style, but that would only make him a Martyr and only harden the resolve of his supporters - plus Rudeman 2 would come along in time. Would Pence be an improvement? What about Ryan, and Rand?
Warren or Biden if he runs I think have the best chance. Booker might have had a shot until his recent comments on blackface. That probably has him dismissed by a good percentage of liberals. He won't last through the middle of the primaries.
