I'm wondering how will the DNC ruin the chances we get an actual progressive and not some centrist for president.
Forum user's prediction validated with mere hours to spare
I'm almost positive he'll run again, but if he doesn't make it, he'll support her wholeheartedly. Hell, combine with the age-factor, he may drop out early if he's lagging behind enough, and then support her.
I'm down. I like her. I'm looking forward to hearing her arguments throughout primary season.
The DNC could nominate Air Bud and I'd vote for it over Trump
At least he's a good boy
I hate to tell you this little man. Airbud dead. Sorry champ.
I guess there's going to be a flurry of campaign announcements now in the coming weeks.
I wonder how long before she burns out of her funding before the serious campaigns get started, as seems to be the norm for the first few announcers.
Jeb is going to announce tomorrow that hes running as a Jeb
Glad to see my friends and I aren't the only ones making Jeb jokes
A vote for Jeb is a vote for Jeb!
YOU LIE
Still less rotten than the incumbent.
Well in 2016, Warren backed Hillary during primaries.
So I am doubtful.
She waited until she won the primaries to endorse, she would have endorsed whoever won.
Well even in that case, Warren hasn't backed Bernie at all during 2016 primaries.
Plus how would Bernie help her? He ain't a Democrat, so no inluence within the party. Bernie voters will vote for Bernie, so he must not run to help her somewhat in primaries. And Bernie-or-bust voters are a lost cause regadless, as they didn't vote for Clinton in presidential even after Bernie called for his base to vote for her. So Bernie endorsing someone else in primaries probably won't get anyone extra, at least not in significant numbers.
Man I hope we don't get 100 candidates running for the primaries. I feel like that was a contributing factor to this presidency, everyone in the Republican primaries trying to out-crazy each other and the most polarizing figures rising through sheer coverage.
If the ballot gets flooded with lunatics, brace yourself for Pied Piper v2
I'm a fan of Warren. She's done good work in the fight against wall street and corporations. I don't know if I'll vote for her in the primaries, but she's welcomed.
The first debates are in June of 2019. For 2008, the first were in April 2007. So not surprised to see the announcements hitting a week or 2 early.
Out of everyone likely to run, I think Elizabeth is my favourite. I like Sanders more, but he's really only setting himself up to be sabotaged by the DNC again. And he knows that if he runs as an independent he's going to hand Trump the victory by splitting the vote. Warren, on the other hand, is not only a longtime Democrat who the party won't view as an interloper, but her values are closer to the progressive element within the Democrats than the neoliberal one.
Warren is my 2nd pick. I like her but Bernie is still the better candidate and I think it's genuinely a question whether she can actually beat Trump in the general. I think Bernie has enough name recognition and momentum now to overcome any shenanigans this time around, especially with so many people in the race.
I like her in theory, but the fact is that any new deal style program or reform initiative will only last about a generation before the corruption seeps its way back in.
I would vote for her, but in the end she is just another in a long line of misguided folks who think they can reform or save capitalism. FDR Couldn't do it and neither could his cousin Teddy.
Her reforms will be whittled away by billionaires in about 20 years after she is elected, and we will be here again except this time we will have neo-feudalism under automation.
So yeah vote for her, but dont let her trick you into accepting capitalism, it truly doesnt work.
Huh yeah, now that it's finally about to be 2019 I guess we're going to start seeing all of the hopefuls announcing their campaigns
I'm just afraid that the smear campaign that started years ago is already too much for her to overcome.
He's compost, which means he's helping the environment, which means a dead dog is still doing better than the current president.
i mean that goes for everything. Everything will go to shit if its left unchecked or it isn't maintained.
I can't fucking wait for Hillary Rodham Clinton to run again
I searched for Jeb memes and I got this
wtf
