Needs to be a long run of Oresidents that hail from CA, NY or Texas.

Dems should be wary of nominating someone who has ties to a jewish zio-terrorist when the party is becoming anti-zionist. That would be Rahm's dad.

You responded to a troll. Rahm Emmanuel is not even in the room when discussing possible presidential candidates.

Not a troll. He seems to be running.

Whether he can get on the stage is a different question, but he's got his sights fixed.

Whoever vows to hold bad actors accountable like Magyar in Hungary is doing. Any policy will do because if Dems don’t put people in jail and make changes to the system we’ll be back here by 2030.

Too anti-zionist. Dnc would never

You all know that there are people in this country who aren’t in the DSA right? A Platner/AOC ticket might win with hipsters in Brooklyn but never ever a national election.

I think that people are tired of choosing between far right and slightly less far right candidates.

Bingo. I know it will never happen, but I'm just so tired of Democrats pandering to "moderate" Republicans, or being criticized for not pandering enough. Any Democratic ticket is going to be criticized by the right and the middle, so why not just go further to the left and at least energize those of us who are sick of Democrats who are just slightly more ethical Republicans.

Because the majority of America isn't woke and insane and will vote for JD Vance even though they might not want to. Dems need to present a candidate who projects normalcy.

This! JD Vance or Rubio would clobber someone like AOC in states like VA, NC, PA, and Michigan. The vast majority of people are not far left by any measure, especially when it comes to far left social issues. Kamala was dragged for being too far left socially. What do you think will happen to AOC? There are probably reels of clips of her saying outlandish “woke” stuff that the Republicans can play on loops in between Monday Night Football games leading up to the election.

Bernie was more feasible precisely because he had more old school left wing politics that focused on class and not race and gender. He was way more palatable in the Midwest than someone like AOC.

MAGAs are the ones focusing on race and gender. And I'm laughing at you thinking there are clips of AOC saying outlandish things. Have you heard Trump lately? Do you honestly think that JD Vance threatening the Pope ISN'T outlandish?

DP I am not saying it’s right but she will not be taken seriously outside of the more urban and more liberal areas. AOC will not win a national election because she will struggle in swing states. It might not be fair to her but it is what it is.

I think there's a lot of copium here. It's possible someone like AOC when when because she's a woman and young but not because of her policies.
So yeah Bernie was more popular because he was an old white man not because his policies were radically different.

But my point is everybody wants to believe the country is centrist but they want change. They want something better, different.

So Dems can offer up the same old same old and people look for change in the grifter like Trump or they can offer up someone who's actually trying like Mamdani and probably win.

No one votes for the centris of the world because her passionate about him. They vote because it's all they've ever been offered.

Nah, a majority of Americans want a government that works FOR them, not one that grifts off them and starts wars. "Woke" is just the word that stupid MAGAs use when they're scared that someone with actual policies that are designed to help people seem to be gaining too much traction. No one is voting for JD Vance except for the sheeple who persist in watching Fox news and thinking that the lies they're being fed are true. Sadly, I accept that this is probably 1/3 of the country, but it's definitely not over half.

That would be such a powerhouse ticket.

Neither of them have any charisma. Newsom runs circles around these guys. Charisma matters more than anything in politics. People are incredibly shallow.

Who cares about charisma. Let’s go with good character and sanity. Many voted for Trump based on “charisma” and look where we’re at. Newsom is slick and slimy (see Kegsbreath, get a clue).

Last time I checked Trump won the election. I care about winning elections and the average person is a dope who cares about superficial things. In a perfect world the Karashians wouldn’t have a top rated show and everyone would put more emphasis on less superficial things but we exist in this world and I want to win an election. Got it?

You're an average person...a dope...right? Or are you thinking you're better than everyone else?

We elected George W Bush and Trump; two times! What more evidence do you need?

How woke and insane do you have to be to believe something this outlandish?

This primary is going to be fascinating. Of course there was dnc meddling in the election, but Bernie got his butt kicked in the southern states back in 2016 and it will be a repeat of that with AOC on the ticket.

Yep. The middle of America (politically and geographically) does not want a leftist or a communist and definitely does not want a leftist communist.

You might be, but the majority of America is center right, which is why Obama won as well (he was center right despite what Fox News would lead you to believe). Because he was center right he was a fantastic president.

Biden campaigned as a centrist but let his advisors do far left things like open the border, which brought on a crazy zealot like Trump. If Biden would have governed like the person he campaigned as, and didn’t drop out because of his decline, we wouldn’t be in this mess.

So sexist. AOC has way more experience and knowledge than that loser, who is pro-white, anti-women.

Both Teddy and Franklin Roosevelt would be dream candidates today. But it’s been a very long time since the inherited rich produced people with character, energy, and vision. It’s a lazy and cynical class of families in 2026. Nothing good is coming from the wealthy families today. It’s different times.

It’s getting worrisome no one obvious has emerged yet. After midterms, Republicans are going to move quickly to the post Trump world and may nominate someone tough to beat. Meanwhile, Democrats are languishing in the post Biden/Harris hangover. Schumer and Jeffries are the head of the party. And everyone is blah about Democrats today. The clock is ticking.
