Can the dems make sense out of a potential catastrophe, too many candidates!!

[Disir]

Right now they are just focusing on makeup, hair and gowns.

 

[HenryBHough]

Laughable.

No matter how many streams must run red with the blood of "suicides" - no matter how many sewers are clogged with their remains.

Hillary WILL be The Democrat-Socialist candidate for 2020.

Get on the team now or find yourself crushed by it.

I was curious how the democrats will elect their 2020 presidential candidate. It looks like there will be forums and debates starting in June, but no one knows who will be invited and who will not. At present there are (10) declared candidates and (40) potential candidates. Even if we can whittle that down by half, that still leaves (25) candidates. So the dems will need to decide, like the GOP did, who gets to sit at the big table and who gets to sit at the kiddie tables? This looks like a crazy process right from the start, at least until Super Tuesday, then it gets more or less normal?!

There were no additional "potentials" for the GOP, all (17) got in for the first few debates and primaries.

The 2016 GOP primary narrowed down to the big 4, Trump, Cruz, Kasich and Rubio after the first 3 primaries, with Ben Carson hanging around for a few more.

IMHO the dem convention will depend upon whom the (712) super-delegates are told to vote for by the polit bureau. The super-delegates call the ball, all others they will fall. The committed delegates will be so diluted by so many candidates that getting the requisite 2,026 delegates to win the nomination will depend upon getting the vast majority of the (712) super-delegates.

• Elizabeth Warren (D), U.S. senator from Massachusetts
• Joe Biden, (D) former vice president of the United States

If the dems want to win, that old white guy named Joe Biden is the one they should nominate. So my bet is that is who will get the super-delegates and win the nomination. Call it a hunch.
Opinion | Joe Biden is the Democrats' best chance to beat Trump in 2020. Period.

Lol, the op lists potential Democratic candidates that won't be here for the first primaries either. There aren't, and may not be, 17 declared Democratic candidates.

The Democrats Are Going With The 'Shotgun-Blast' Approach.....shoot enough bird shot and one pellet is bound to his the target.


1 is a fake Indian who swindled a college and a Native American out of a scholarship and violated the BAR

1 is an admitted sexual assaulter who calls himself 'Spartacus'

1 is a corrupt skank who slept her way to the top of politics......

.....and on and on and on.

Still, they thought this was the best way to go about picking a nominee like they did last time, which was basically rig primaries, cheat in debates, engage in election fraud, break laws, and in the end give their preferred proven criminal the nomination she could not win on her own.


This time it's 'the more the merrier'. The more there are the better chance of getting at least ONE good one.

Like Trump University which had to refund 25 million to pay of fraud charges.

When a Russian troll opines that the Democrats are in trouble because they have too many candidates, and cries crocodile tears over their chances in 2020, and then multiple Russian trolls all chime in that the party is in deep shit, you just have to laugh at the idiocy of these clown posters.

Last night, a defeated candidate for Senator in Texas, drew just a big a crowd as the Trump rally, but here's the difference. A BBC cameraman was violently attacked after the speakers whipped the crowd into a "fake news" frenzy ranting against the media. I think the media should stop attending these rallies, since their safety is becoming ever increasing issue as Trump continues to attack the media.

There was no violence at the O'Rourke rally.

When a Russian troll opines that the Democrats are in trouble because they have too many candidates, and cries crocodile tears over their chances in 2020, and then multiple Russian trolls all chime in that the party is in deep shit, you just have to laugh at the idiocy of these clown posters.

Last night, a defeated candidate for Senator in Texas, drew just a big a crowd as the Trump rally, but here's the difference. A BBC cameraman was violently attacked after the speakers whipped the crowd into a "fake news" frenzy ranting against the media. I think the media should stop attending these rallies, since their safety is becoming ever increasing issue as Trump continues to attack the media.

There was no violence at the O'Rourke rally.

No Americans either.
