Who is an up and coming Democrat that might be a viable nominee?
Pick any Democratic Senator under 50.
I think Dick Durbin running for governor means he is setting himself up to run in 2024 or 2028. Anthony Brown and Charli Crist both seem to want to be in government really bad.
Jay Inslee apparently started an exploratory committee the night after he won reelection.
I have said before, Cuomo(NY) is going to run. Steve Bullock in Montana has nothing else to do, and the only reason his predecessor didnt run is because he couldnt get any traction.
Well, crazy Joe has not ruled it out ...but then, he's probably not viable. The problem with the Democrats is that they have gone too far left. It isn't John Kennedy's Party anymore. The Democrats have become full blown socialists (which is what Progressivism is; Marxist/socialism)
You republicans keep saying that, but JFK wanted government to provide a job to every jobless person just liked FDR. Something you republicans have always been against.
That alone makes him far more liberal than the Democratic Party is now.
JFKs party was a New Deal Democratic Party backed by strong unions and far more progressive than the Wall Street neoliberal elite that have been crushed by the regressives in the GOP lately. Returning to the New Deal roots of FDR and JFK would be a good thing, not a bad thing.
JFK argues for universal health care and how a progressive citizenry and progressive government made America great:
JFK also argued for lower taxes to spur economic growth and was for a strong and muscular military and foreign policy. He was very pro-America, including law and order.
Any Democratic candidate that continues to pretend we are still in the 1950s when it comes to social issues and makes it a huge part of their campaign will lose easily
JFK also argued for lower taxes to spur economic growth and was for a strong and muscular military and foreign policy. He was very pro-America, including law and order.
He wouldn't fly in the current democrat party.
He still supported a 65% top marginal tax rate, which is substantially higher than what any progressive supports today. And the non-progressive neoliberal Wall Street wing of the Dem party supports far, far lower rates. "muscular military policy"? Well, this was the height of the Cold War, totally different times than today when the military industrial complex has to constantly scare people to get taxpayer money for the latest toys.
Jim Webb/Tulsi Gabbard combo would be a guaranteed win. Though it is said they seem to be the only two sane Democrats
Amen! Tulsi Gabbard in 2020!
I also like small town mayor of Braddock, Pennsylvania, John K. Fetterman. He ran a grassroots campaign for the senate seat in the pa primary against two establishment politicians. He is a Harvard Grad and looks like White America from the rust belt and Appalachian states

Nancy Pelosi....
