I like Tulsi personally, but I don't see someone who is openly Hindu playing well outside of the really liberal parts of the country. She would get hit HARD from the R's if she believes in reincarnation or not.

Tulsi is from the new generation, military experience, woman, minority, not part of the failed foreign policy establishment (or any establishment for that matter) and has been able to work some with Trump which I think is actually a plus for her.

She's very wonky and I didn't like how she was just used as an attack dog last year

But if she runs a national campaign that's offering people something and isn't anti Trump then she can win.

If Brown had the ambition, he'd be the guy. A progressive in the biggest swing state of the Midwest.

Yeah, Warren is basically an establishment figure who just happens to be a bit farther to the left at this point. She has a personality that will make her easy to dismiss. "Harvard Law Professor" doesn't play well outside of super liberal areas. And Trump already has an effective tag on her...."Pocahontas."

Brown has a good chance if he wants it.

I don't think Warren is likeable enough...shes too wonky, is kind of a weird speaker and is fine in her spot as a senator. I dont see her being able to run a good national campaign that would turn out voters and I do see her being pretty much only anti-trump but that could just be because of how she was solely used as an attack dog like u said

Elizabeth Warren or any white woman over the age of 60 doesn't have a snowball' s chance in hell of winning after the Hillary debacle let's just be real

Biden and Bernie are too old

Reality is I think we will see a Mark Cuban or entrepreneur/ celebrity throw their hat in the ring. Paired up with a career democrat (say Cory Booker) - dunno which will be be Pres and VP but I'm confident that's the ticket we'll see and they'll win easily enough

Warren is wack imo.

Kamala Harris, Sherrod Brown, Cory Booker. Not a fan of Booker but I got a feeling he'll do well. Brown/Harris seems like best ticket to me but we'll see.
This. I'm just :snoop: whenever I see black folks suggesting Cory Booker or Kamala Harris. They just happy too see any black face.

Gilbrandt or any other sensible normal democrat. Booker is bland and isn't married which means he's gay or a philanderer. Harris is too left. Warren and Sanders are too old. Dems need to focus on the midterms which they always fail at

Harris is solid. As I said I'm not a fan of Booker but I think he'll do well in primaries.

It's too early

After Midterm elections is when things will get started

Warren and Brown have to win re-election. They're the strongest profiles to run a national campaign. I think that should be the ticket.

I get the impression that Warren doesn't want to be president. She knows that a lot of people want her to be president, but she probably feels like she can do a lot more with her position now than she can being president.

These picks are AWFUL and the Democrats are DOOMED. I mean Jesus, Kamala Harris?! People would eat her alive. She's very immigrant loving and hasn't lived the African American experience and I doubt she'll get the Black vote which that's her best bet because White people overall are not going to vote for her.

Booker?! A man who isn't even married and has MANY gay rumors swirling around him? Also a man who advocated for Jeff Sessions and voted against cheaper drugs when somebody like Ted Cruz out of all people supported it. Booker is part of the establishment.:mjlol:

Biden's too old and his family drama is already took much for the voters to bare with. There's already a bunch of scandalous things going on in that family. Not a good look when you're running for president.

The other picks aren't even worth discussing. :mjlol:
