I like your choices, and if #1 or #2 were President, I would hope that they would consider #3 and #4 as Vice President, or the other way around will work too.

Change in status based on performance at the debates.

"B" List Debate
  • Winners - Gabbard, Booker
  • Losers - Beto, Warren
"A" List Debate
  • Winners - Harris, Buttigieg
  • Losers - Sanders, Biden
Everyone else stayed the same.

Of course the real winner of this two night dog and pony show was President Donald Trump. These debates, very poorly handled by NBC and led by some of the biggest asses on TV were a complete disaster for the Democrat party.

Overall Winner
  • President Donald Trump

Default Re Harris criticizing Biden’ “working with...

Segregationists”.

It seems that Biden was talking about having to work with people he didn’t agree with to get things done, while she was try to make it look like he agreed with their policies. If you agree with Biden’s explanation, then how do you justify almost all Democrats refusing to work with President Trump? Just look at how much is getting done by the Democrats in Congress. Not much, if anything.

motivated young voters, who outnumber boomers, could turn out in droves on election day 2020 and resoundingly beat trump if Bernie with a black or female VP are the democratic party nominees.

Biden and a black male or female VP won't appeal much to young voters, but they would definitely appeal to older, white, non-college educated voters and black Obama voters in important electoral college states.

Low expectations is a form of bigotry that the far left is particularly guilty of.

I think most Democrats in Congress aren't able to work with Trump because his policies aren't in line with theirs, not necessarily because they don't like him or his private lifestyle.

Democrats have passed quite a few bills and resolutions and sent them along to the Senate, only to have them ignored. So they are still trying to do their job.

Democrat Logic.
  • Theory - Young voters will win the election for Democrats
  • Plan - Run an 80 year old man with an identity token as a VP to attract them.
It has to be seen to be believed.

Seeing these people make fools out of themselves on stage, trying to speak Spanish and trying to pander to their constituents, many Americans see them and their foolishness for what it is.

The media so desperately wants us to believe that most Americans favor any democrat candidate against Trump, but it's that kind of hubris and ignorance that got Trump elected in the first place. Many Americans are sick and tired of being treated like morons by the democrats, and come next year, when sensible and mature adults realize that Trump has done more and tried to do what he promised than any comparable democrat, he will win re-election.
I guess you didn't want the Republican debates in 2016.
