Its precisely the progressive New Deal pro-labor democrat that can win outside of the East/West coast. The so-called "centrist" is just code word for anti-labor puppet of Wall Street, big pharma and the insurance companies. That yields zero enthusiasm.

I would love to see him and/or Booker in the running for 2020!
Booker? That would be terrible. He's swimming in bribe money from all of the most powerful special interests in America. A vote for Booker is a vote for the billionaire class. And that means we'll get the preferred policies of the most powerful economic forces in America. Thats not what's needed when the American people are struggling.

Being a "Truther" at least Booker could get to the bottom of what really happened on 9/11.

I don't think Trump will run again in 2020. His age and the crap he's putting up with from the deep state just makes it too unlikely. Cory Booker is being groomed to be the next Obama and the dem list of the other possibles is just too weak or too radical. Not that Booker isn't a complete phony, I said he was the next Obama.
I don't know who the GOP will run, their list of candidates is equally limited. A populist candidate could win if the right one comes along. Both parties are losing support and the faith of the people.

Of those, I'd take Jason Kander, but I prefer none of the above.

The way the left attacked Reagan of being "only an actor", Al will have a hard time living down being a comedian.

The only thing I want to be "delivered", is a mortal blow to the so-called "progressive" ideology. Finish what was attempted in the 1920s and 1950's, and marginalize and exclude the Leftists (who simply refuse to accept the rule of open markets, human interaction and Empirical Reason) -- once and for all, via their own stupidity.

This satire says it all -- liberals beware -- too much truth for you to handle.
Too funny, but all true.
