2020 Democratic Primary Thread: Focus on House & Senate races

"I must make two honest confessions to you, my Christian and Jewish brothers. First, I must confess that over the past few years I have been gravely disappointed with the white moderate. I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says: "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action"; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a "more convenient season." Shallow understanding from people of good will is more frustrating than absolute misunderstanding from people of ill will. Lukewarm acceptance is much more bewildering than outright rejection." - Martin Luther King Jr

No lies told.

Context is everything though.

There is a Hulu series on the NYT endorsement process. Don’t know why it’s 25 episodes but I’m about to check out the last episode where they announce their endorsements.

This is an honest critique of sanders and concern many have about him as a candidate, but none of his supporters ever want to have a calm measured conversation about this with doubters

Going back to the point, Booker doesnt have the type backers / donors or generation wealth other candidates have.

well he did have money coming in, albeit from corporate interests, until the well connected white side of the party created a virtue signaling effect where corporate money is a non starter (and believe, I know it is a problem) but this leaves a lot of black politicians in a bind

He could be an interesting VP pick that might lead to a presidency after his predecessor, especially if it’s Biden or sanders who should only be one term presidents

whats amazing is how open minded non-sanders supporters are. they're malleable and just committed to the end goal.

the sanders supporters are functionally zombies and aren't open to ANY criticism.

Breh why do yall act surprised....

We live in a world where money buys influence.

Heck I was just reminded the other day, the reason why Australia had a strong streak against climate change, was because Murdock owns most of the media outlets there, so essentially he controls the flow of information / influence.But after this recent wildfire, a lot of aussies are about to buck the trend.

Get booker a girlfriend longer than 12 months and he'll have a chance.

I don't even think he's gay (I mean who knows anymore) I just think he's a goof who tries to ride too many fences. But thats hard being a black senator. From New Jersey. You represent so many people that you basically end up being a smooth edged cornball just to get elected.

Obama. Harris. Booker.

Even Tim Scott who isn't running for reelection after 2022.
