Harry Truman was selected for public office and bankrolled by the Kansas City Mafia. He left the Presidency with the lowest approval ratings of anyone to hold that office.
Truman was the last decent Democrat to be in the office
I wish we could find a good Truman democrat, instead we have fascio-socialists/communists that are anti freedom
There's also Amy Klobuchar, but she hasn't yet built enough of a following, it appears.
True. I really liked what I've heard from her. Sadly, because of the lack of numbers she won't have the opportunity. Ideologically, I definitely favor the more centric candidates.
I completely agree. Biden's continued popularity mystifies me. He is way past his prime and not eloquent enough. Agree with you on Booker and Harris. But remember The US has no official language. So a Spanish speaker is by no means a dealbreaker. In fact, bilingual candidates might sway people who are on the fence about voting Dem (blood red Texas anyone?)
I commend anyone who is bilingual, especially those who move here. What I see when the candidates speak Spanish is blatant pandering, which isn’t fooling anyone.
Biden has strong name recognition and is more centrist, I think that is a lot of his appeal. I keep saying the country isn't ready for this far far left agenda that the other candidate are pushing.
Biden is beginning to make a fool of himself. I say that not as a dig, but his age, or whatever it is isn't doing him any favors. I watched an interview clip of him a few weeks back and he rambled on about something for 3 or 4 minutes and didn't say a damn thing.
Go home and enjoy the grandkids, with all due respect.
I do agree with you and the other posters. Several of the other Democrat candidates are too liberal for more centrist voters. Who is the right candidate? I don't know. Elizabeth Warren is looking pretty impressive overall.
The next debate could be back to two nights. Candidates have the same criteria as they did last night but several more weeks to get the needed polling data. The ten from last night are all in, of course, since they qualified already. Tom Steyer has qualified now for the next one. Gabbard is not that far away.

Wall Street and the swamp is simply terrified of Warren. At some point they will throw billions, if needed, into advertising to smear her.

As I said early in the discussion IF she gets in and IF she follows through with her vow to stop drilling and fracking The economy will come to a screaming halt AS will the rush to a carbon free electrical grid...........
When you determine the 'winner' of a debate, there are all kinds criteria. Beto gained the most net favorable ratings, and personally I think Beto won this debate. Looks like he canned his advisors and became himself again--the guy that excited Texans in the senate race.
