Regardless of outcome of this election...

I think this is likely to be the last time for Sanders / Biden / Bloomberg due to their age
I don’t think others (21 of them) who have dropped out and couldn’t even win a pledged delegate should run again unless they really have some significant breakthrough, and that includes Harris / Yang / Booker / Castro, etc. I think Yang should become Governor of New York or Mayor of NYC to test out his UBI scheme before he runs again.

So that leaves 5 of them for the next cycle:
1. Elizabeth Warren
2. Pete Buttigieg
3. Amy Klobuchar
4. Tom Steyer
5. Tulsi Gabbard

Which of these 5 do you guys foresee running again? I think the first 3 (Warren / Buttigieg / Klobuchar) likely will

Gabbard is ahead of the rest, by saying now what the rest of the party may say later. Warren is done.

I don't know if Pete will run again so soon. He is no longer mayor of South Bend. I could see Pete becoming like Jay Carner, from Obama's administration, who joined Amazon. He could join Facebook, but maybe when he is in late 40s or 50s, he'd run for President again. By then though, any charisma he had will be gone.

I definitely could see the senators, Kamala Harris, Cory Booker, Elizabeth Warren, Amy Klobuchar giving runs again. It'd be just as boring as if Ted Cruz or Marco Rubio did again on the Republican side.

Pete Buttigieg, but probably not for a long time.

In a lot of ways, he is the perfect moderate foil for the progressive movement (similar to Bill Clinton). He just needs to get his relationship with minorities together. That said, things happen in cycles. As we had to contend with neoliberalism for 40 years, Progressivism won't go away overnight once Bernie's gone.

I can also see Amy Klobuchar, Julian Castro, Kamala Harris and Cory Booker run again.

Elizabeth Warren is done. By the time Bernie's term is over, she'll be too old. I also think Andrew Yang is done (he has no political experience).

In the mean time, AOC will be one to watch after Bernie's 2nd Term.

Should that happen she’d be the perfect candidate to continue his policies. Even if Bernie were to win however, the stats say he won’t live long enough to complete a 2nd term.

If you’re confident of Bernie winning you could make a lot of money.

Harris / Booker / Castro couldn’t even make it to voting and didn’t get any delegates... what makes them think they can succeed in future runs?

The question in your title was "Who you do foresee running again in the future?", not "who can succeed in future runs?"

If I may remind you, Joe Biden is on his 4th (and possibly failed) run.

That’s because he had a significant breakthrough after being the vPOTUS

My point is, the question you asked in your last post is different from the question you asked in the OP.

I can certainly foresee Harris / Booker / Castro running again in the future, even if they were unsuccessful this last time and are unsuccessful again.
