Sen. Elizabeth Warren says she will seek the presidency in 2020

[Wild 1,296]

I don’t see her making it all the way but I’m glad she’s running! 

 

Also the notion that Biden would make a good candidate is laughable. His voting record is horrible and no democrat I know takes him seriously.

Lol. I needed a good laugh to start my day.

Where did the idea that centrism is the way spring up? Neoliberals like Clinton and Obama are the reason the white working class don’t trust Democrats 

We need candidates who have the right policy positions that benefit the middle class... not a superficial, ideologically “middleground” stance.

But if we want to talk right vs. left - the further right you are, the more pro-corporation you are. The more left you are, the more pro-middle class you are. 

BE PRO-MIDDLE CLASS. Being a centrist just means you go in with half measures, which end up being watered down right-wing measures in the end.

I love Elizabeth Warren. She's a hero and an icon.

I don't think she will win unless the field narrows down and she learns how to be very personable with the American Public, but politically she definitely aligns with me quite well.

We'll see who else ends up running, I hope she surprises me, or ends up a vice-presidential candidate on another person's ticket.

I like her but let’s be realistic... 

I came here to argue this exact point. 

Look, I like her and she has been done wrong but that does not equal votes. I'm not sure this is the right at this pivotal time. 

We need an independent who is able to meet in that grand middle and THEN after all that, we can go far. 

Too right or too left is a mistake at this time and will very possibly allow Trump another 4 years and I cant have that, America cant have that.  The world cant have that.  

So...shes cool but not the answer for right NOW.

She’s distasteful. If that’s the best that Democrats can bring, say hello to Trump 2020

More socialists like Bernie Sanders, please. 

Or greens like Jill Stein.

The democrats need to go more centrist if they want to win. The liberals won't have a chance in swing states

Normally I wouldn't agree with this but a good chunk of the Republican base can't stand Trump anymore. We need someone who can promise stability and a "better luck next time" attitude for them but also immediate action on certain things like climate change, penal reform, and corporate welfare for the lefties.

Spoiler

I didn't know how to say it  by "corporate welfare", I mean the wage gap, the price of living sky rocketing while wages stay low, how CEO's are allowed to cheat their way out of taxes, etc.

Biden is a great choice and Beto would make some of the farther left voters feel more at ease imo.

The US green party is a joke and Bernie himself is too "pie in the sky" about his policies. He's got great ideas but no magic wand to will them into existence

Someone who can adopt those ideals but apply a real sense of pragmatism to them *cough* Hillary *cough* would be perfect though.

The most popular candidate is former Vice President Joe Biden, who has consistently led polls of potential presidential candidates in the past few months. Fifty-three percent of voters surveyed said they feel excited about Biden running. 

Of course, a new front runner is entirely possible...but Biden has been the top choice of Democrats for a long while.

No, it won't happen. And if she becomes the nominee then Dems will lose again.

[Andy McQueen 4,484]

I like Biden.
