Analysis: Why do all these white billionaire men think Democrats will nominate them for the presidency?

 

Thank you for your comment. Your comment will be published after being reviewed.

Induction by enumeration.

Have we learned our lesson yet

Now you have a problem with WHITE MEN running for office ? Seriously ?

Because they're not trump?

'The idea is just ridiculous,' laughed Steve Forbes. 'Isn't it now?' agreed Ross Perot.

Well the bar is pretty low. If a narcissistic, racist, juvenile can do it.........

Democratic party has nominate 35 presidential candidates. 33 were white men. 1 was a white woman (lost) and 1 was a black man (won). The math is why they think this?

White men should be treated as second class citizens! Timesup

Look who the Republicans nominated.

They know that electing a far left dem will get us 8 more years of trump

What a nonsense article. What’s sadder is the people in these comments that take it seriously.

The media is slowly but not quietly starting a war on white men.

The Dems will not nominate a white person no matter what. It's their racist mindset...

I don't give two 💩's about what color the candidate is. I want the team who can take down Trump and fix this shit show he's created. If the best team to do that is Biden/Beto or Harris/Booker or Biden/Harris, I DON'T CARE! They must ❤️ Democracy and support minority policies.

Because, unlike in democracies, you need millions to become politician in the US. Those millions come from private donators (illegal in democracies because of obvious corruption) or from their own pockets (illegal in democracies because of no equal chances for everybody).

Because there is no one else to nominate? Money does not equal qualified...

Question: Why do most of the 'news' articles coming from this propaganda outlet have to do with skin colour? Is it bc you're racists? It is, isn't it....you racists...

You sure he's white Kinda looks Swedish to me!

Voters respect billionaires that use their own money for their campaigns. It makes them believe they are above corruption. But I can't speak for Democrats on this point.

Because the party takes legalized bribes from them?

TomSteyer subverted the US coal industries by investing in China coal !! While neglecting American coal mine jobs here at home! What a scum-bag!

Maybe for same reason they can bribe elected officials into taxing citizens to give their corporations handouts to locate an office in their town, with no guarantee of success? Or because they bamboozle small cities into thinking their bribes would work to get free consulting?

Not sure why you lump Bloomberg here since he ran the biggest city in the US for 12 years and quite well nut whatever. This sort of talk is what gets us Trumps. If they want to run let them. Whatever works.

That’s a really good question because it won’t happen

Being a billionaire doesn't make you a good leader. The past two years have confirmed that!

Hubris. Steyer is not a good candidate and god help him if he believes he is.

Entitlement

The people in this thread do realise these individuals are just advertising themselves. They couldn't give a shit if they got nominated. Free Press.

Because they have faith in themselves?

Good question.

Precedent. Money. All of the above

......because acquiring power is, in reality, far more important than all the lip service they pay to diversity and empowering women.

🤦‍♀️they all need interventions

Neoliberalism is a POISON upon the land, just like PuckingRefuglycan -ism.

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say it's because they're pretty well used to buying support from centrist, corporate Democrats. It's the same reason white billionaire men think Republicans will nominate them for president. Aaaaand they're probably correct.

Another attack on white men. If WaPo attacked black men, the way they attack white men, the SPLC would deem them a hate group.

They're stupid for 1000 Alex

They're used to getting what they pay for.

Hwuite. Males. Hwuite. Hwuite. Talcum powder.

Perspective | Why Democrats shouldn’t nominate someone over 70 in 2020Perspective: Why Democrats shouldn’t nominate someone over 70 in 2020 Beto 2020 is the solution! If, and that's a BIG 'if,' they can find a candidate in his/her early 50's that has both the policy chops and campaign charisma, the Democrats should get behind that person early and loudly. It's unlikely that they'll find another Obama, but they should try to come close. Agree.

Analysis | Why the L.A. teachers strike is so uncomfortable for so many DemocratsDemocrats don't agree with one another on public education in the same ways they did decades ago. It took me a while to understand the sign, but now I think I got it. The longer they are on strike, the better for the students. As a LAUSD parent picketing along side our teachers, this article is way off, from stating that the superintendent was appointed by a Democratic mayor (he was appointed by a pro-charter board) to saying that charter schools are a small issue. It’s about the future of public edu. What Democrats? Neo Liberal Corporate Democrats? Don't get that confused with Progressive Democrats who give a shit about labor, education, health, our infrastructure, our elders, our children. Corporate Democrats are busy counting their Corporate Bribe money to sell out labor.

Analysis | Stacey Abrams showed why voting rights must be a key issue for Democrats in 2020“We can do so much more: take action on climate change. Defend individual liberties with fair-minded judges. But none of these ambitions are possible without the bedrock guarantee of our right to vote.' Analysis: The right to have Judges Legislate. Bankrupting the poor with carbon taxes and Diluting the votes of citizens with non citizens are all old ideas. We expected more from Ms Abrams. Maybe Liberalism does not have anything more to offer. Just to be clear, she is NOT supporting her breasts with her hands in that picture? She didn't show anything. She just whined about a non-existent voter suppression problem while ignoring the actual voter fraud problem.

Analysis | The White House is changing its tune on why it yanked Jim Acosta’s press passThe White House initially accused Acosta of what amounted to assault. Now, in the fact of a lawsuit, it says the pass was revoked because Acosta wouldn't yield the microphone. 'Analysis' Is this the newspeak for Opinion, Ministry of Truth? Only thugs would doctor a VID of the incident. Punitive damages too. Too little too late. Maybe if they didn't post falsified 'evidence' to defame a citizen.
