Just curious. If anyone is willing to say, I would like to know. I suspect that most, like me, have not yet chosen, but I imagine some have.
Who do you plan to vote for in the Presidential Primaries ( what particular candidate, whether they are in the dem primaries, rep primaries, or independent party primaries)?
Are you a “pleb”? You haven’t put your pick on this thread. (I assume your pick is Bernie.)?
I cant vote but bernie is the one. Why do you think the other have gone into hiding on this?
It is way too early for people who tend to be skeptical anyway, to have made a solid choice. So I expect that no one has anything to add, for now, other than “undecided”. And there may be a few (a couple?) who have decided already to vote for Trump, but they don’t want to divulge that on this forum.
silence … Cannot reveal the true inner thoughts on this. Have to try and avoid trying to explain. Feeling weak now. Must concentrate. If we can avoidance this on mass, it will help.
noithing yet. Must be strumming
Still nothing
I don’t pick a candidate this early. Believe it or not, I don’t like politics. The horse race especially. And campaign rallies just creep me out.
And, Player, it’s amazing how even when you saying “nothing”, you manage to come off as a complete turd.
I’m far from decided. I like Lieberman, but he just seems too old. Warren comes off as too shrill and argumentative. I’ve seen her on The View a couple of times too, and she seems like someone you’d want to have in your Cabinet, but I don’t know if I’d want her in the big chair. I heard a lot of good ideas in the debates, but nothing that really makes me support any one of them. About the best thing I can say is that watching the debates, Peto O’roarke was the only one I could actually imagine being President – but that’s purely superficial.
I have narrowed it down to Biden, or Bernie, or Buttigieg, or Booker, or Beto, or Warren, or Harris or Bennett, or Bullock, or Yang, or Inslee, or Castro, or Klobachar, or Moulton, or Steyer, or Ryan, , or Gabbard, or Williamson, or maybe 1 or 2 others. Not necessarily in that order. (Each of which would be a VAST world-saving improvement over what we have now.)
Advocates - too argumentative ? Thats your decision making criteria on this? Can you make a case at the policy level?
“I don’t pick a candidate this early. Believe it or not, I don’t like politics. The horse race especially. And campaign rallies just creep me out.”
Either Lausten doesnt know what he stands for thus cannot align with someone or there is no-one in the race that aligns with his ideology or doesnt really care as the status quo is awesome.
“Each of which would be a VAST world-saving improvement over what we have now.:”
Corporate democrats represent the status quo.
Either Lausten doesnt know what he stands for thus cannot align with someone or there is no-one in the race that aligns with his ideology or doesnt really care as the status quo is awesome.Your ability to assume is above and beyond anything I've ever seen. I have a sense of what I'd like in a President, and no, no one aligns perfectly with it, that would be a ridiculous expectation. It's definitely not the status quo, something that would be obvious if you could comprehend anything else I post. So why should I evaluate a couple dozen people who will drop out of the race between now and then?
Can’t help but notice you didn’t answer the question.
Lausten - you cant evaluate? Whats wrong with your mental capabilities?
Player, Trump has so raped the good parts of the “status quo” and so built up the bad parts, that anything ELSE is an improvement.
Bernie pushed the status quo in the progressive direction in the last Presidential campaign. He and others are continuing the process, this time. But if the most progressive cannot win the general election, it will be for naught. ANY of the Dem candidates I listed are a step in the progressive direction. The alternative is Trump and, it seems, his continuing trek toward fascism.
Which of the Dem candidates that I listed, would you say are (what you are calling) “corporate democrats”?
:ANY of the Dem candidates I listed are a step in the progressive direction. "
No. Corporate Democrats represent status quo. Watch them lose to trump if elected like killery did
All except warren and sanders and tulsi on foreign policy
