Dems for Prez in 2020
« on: May 02, 2017, 09:27:54 PM »
Yes, it's very early and much will likely change, but just for laughs I leave you with this:

Quote
Even the shortlist of Democratic senators potentially eyeing the job is long, with Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts, Cory Booker of New Jersey, and Al Franken and Amy Klobuchar of Minnesota being mentioned.

Al Franken. The jokes would write themselves. Not that the others are any brighter.

Someone want to explain the appeal of Elizabeth Warren to me.  Because I just don't see it.

Mostly a rhetorical question.

With the way the Republicans are currently doubling down on Teh Stupid, a Democrat Prez in 2020 isn't that farfetched.
If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

I don't disagree, but with the names the dems are pulling right now, it appears they are looking to usurp the "stupid party" title. They seem to be doing everything they can to promote their far left fringe and weirdos.

Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

"Someone want to explain the appeal of Elizabeth Warren to me."

Because she's a TRUE American! You know, an American Indian... er... Native American!

That makes her more noble than us white male rapist gender specificizing bastards.

The appeal of Elizabeth Warren to the left is that she's a proven liar and, like Hillary, never admits that she has told a lie.

In other words, she's a perfect representative for them.

It's never too early, Trump has been campaigning since February.

I'd be surprised if Hillary went for it again, she's gotta be tired. Or exhausted, or dehydrated, or has pneumonia - whatever they claim  [tinfoil]. Booker gets mentioned a lot but I just don't think he has a high enough profile (yet). I suppose many felt the same way about Obama though.
I would put my money on Warren - she'll get the Hillary voters that will support any woman and the Bernie voters that want socialism. I would imagine pretty much anyone who voted for Hillary would vote for Warren and she's in the headlines pretty frequently.
In the moral, catatonic stupor America finds itself in today it is only disagreement we seek, and the more virulent that disagreement, the better.

By that standard, who's to say they won't decide to support Lindsay Graham?
