I don't think it is so much a preference for white men as it is a distaste for TV stars with billions and dishonest SJWs.

Even the greater portion of dems have their limits.

I don't care if it's an old man, an older woman, or a person of color, I will vote for ANY candidate who will:

1. Implement affordable universal healthcare.
2. Implement affordable, debt free college for those who are academically qualified.
3. Implement a "living wage" so people can support themselves and get off of government assistance.
4. Fully embrace the science of climate change.
5. Crack down on the corruption and pay-for-play that Trump and the Republicans have maximized.
6. Bring civility back to the White House.

And I know there are MILLIONS of people who agree with me.

Right now, we should nominate a white man because that will always be considered the best PERSON for the job.
Did you even read what I wrote?

Those prophetic words from Oprah about older White people at the very end "They have to die" are said with more than a little sense of gleeful anticipation.

Somehow, if it does come to pass that Oprah does run for election in 2020 , then these words as well as some other of her racist gems will come back to haunt her & rightly so.

1. I agree
2. And, how will that get paid for without going bankrupt?
3. I agree
4. Then the left should embrace the science of there being only 2 biological genders.
5. I agree, but there was corruption long before Trump.
6. Agreed.

They are not the majority. I've never claimed they were. I've claimed that the (D)'s can't win without them.

If she wasn't corrupt, Hillary would have easily won.

Biden, Sanders lead over Oprah and Elizabeth Warren

You have a lot of nerve, at least we didn't vote for an old, white man this past election, you did. Well, he is kinda white, but mostly orange.

Republican strategists think the biggest fear is someone like Joe Biden that can talk to the Rust Belt and would be more sympathetic to them, but apparently Mark Cuban is the one that most gets under Trump's skin:

"Billionaire Mark Cuban, a second former White House official noted, “gets under Trump’s skin like no one else — he knows how to needle this guy. He could get people around him to train him, and he’s naturally got charisma.”

And as many have speculated, Trump is just as likely not to run again:

“But there’s a high degree of speculation that he doesn’t run — he doesn’t appear to be having fun, he’s old and angry..."

The Democrat Trumpworld fears most

most people have common sense...so very few would agree with all of those

affordable universal healthcare..... no such thing.... your (or someone else) need a service that costs big money....

college should not be free..... otherwise you degrade to value of a degree

living wage??? for what area???? a living wage in Mississippi is not the same as NY,NY..... too bad liberals haven't figured out that "one size does not fit all"

climate change.... yes the climate is changing....has been for 4 billion years


pay to play....a liberal plan....

civility???? you mean like the way obozo divided this country???
