This room won't be open 'til your brothers or your sisters come.It's Closing Time.
Last night was the last Democratic presidential debate before the Iowa Caucuses. The prelims are over and we're down to the finalists, even though not a single ballot has been cast. Twenty-eight candidates have thrown their hats into the ring. Twelve are still running. Six of those were on the debate stage. They are the presumptive frontrunners, along with Michael Bloomberg, who is considered a serious candidate in part because he has serious money. But if you've watched the debates, you may have noticed something: the average age of the candidates on the stage is 64. The average age of those still in the race but not on the stage is 56.
That's a problem. According to Pew, 33% of the electorate in 2020 will be non-white. Twenty-seven percent will be Millennials. Millennials have kind of had it with Boomers. It's not enough to count on anybody-but-Trump sentiment carrying the day. Ask HRC how that worked out. Disaffected voters don't turn out. They will even vote for the opponent, as did one in ten Sanders voters in 2016.Pair up.
Andrew Yang speaks with former Vice President Joe Biden during the Democratic presidential primary debate at Loyola Marymount University on December 19, 2019 in Los Angeles, California.I know, I know, Bernie and AOC have been making goo-goo eyes at each other all night long across the room, and AOC has her own ride—in the form of a formidable fundraising and social media machine. He's old, she's young He's white, she's Latina. He's a he, she's a she.
We want Yang & Bernie!
Biden/Harris My vote for any other Dem candidate, except Sanders and Gabbard
NO VOTE for BernieSanders if his VP is TulsiGabbard
Biden/Yang for me would be ideal
Nothing is going to help these losers! Why not Oprah / Moochelle?
Gabbard....what planet are you on?
The inclusion of Gabbard was designed to enrage and engage readers. Don't fall for it.
Nooo JoeBiden NOT Yang.
Biden/Harris
NotYouTulsi
AndrewYang and JoeBidenl We need a President Biden to get our foreign relations back on track and Mr Yang would be a perfect VP
Yang should never align himself with Biden
Yang/Anyone
Make it Yang/Biden. If Biden is the nominee Trump win 2020.
NOBODY but Russian operatives want Tulsi-Russian-Asset-Gabbard ANYWHERE near the White House. If elected there’s a solid chance Bernie won’t live long enough to serve all 4 years of his presidency meaning his VP will likely assume the presidency. Americans DON’T want Gabbard 🛑
Bernie Sanders & Nina Turner or bust!
How about Biden and Mayor Pete? He will be ready in 4.
