SACRAMENTO, Calif. - Democrats seeking to unseat Republican U.S. President Donald Trump in 2020 will choose from the largest and most diverse set of candidates in history - yet, so far, two older white men are leading the pack.
“How do you beat Big Daddy Trump? One of the ideas is that you beat him with Big Daddy Joe,” Christine Pelosi, daughter of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and chairwoman of the California Democratic Party’s women’s caucus, said in reference to Biden. Biden has raced out to a strong early lead, helped by his name recognition and a sense among many voters that he may have the best chance of beating Trump in battleground states.
But most people he has talked to still cite Sanders or Biden as their eventual pick, he said, in part out of concern that the other contenders will not be able to defeat Trump. “If she’s going to be the decision-maker, voters have to be that much more convinced that she’s qualified,” said foundation spokeswoman Amanda Hunter. “There are even more barriers when they run for executive office if they happen to be women of color.”
A more suitable headline would be 'Democrats grapple with identity politics problem'. It's all they & the media that cover for them ever talk about. Old white guy Biden is the only one who can beat Trump (with Sanders a close second). And it has little to do with their skin color
Well, with 14 out of the 24 so-called candidates being white men, the odds would seem to favour this demographic, only 6 are women and the remainder are non-white. Heaven help the democrats for supporting a candidate who is simply more qualified regardless of gender or colour!
MAGA 2020............ Nothing over in the blue is electable.
There is a RIDICULOUS amount of people trying to take over America. Nobody even knows who half of you are...nor do they care cuz its gonna be Trump in 2020!!
This election is to important to just put 'anybody' against the 'Donald'. There are only 5 in that group that may have a chance. Put egos aside and put the right candidate up. To crucial to get this wrong!
The race of the President is less important than the philosophy and the capability of the President. Right now Democrats need someone who can unite the country and who doesn't need training wheels and that's Joe Biden.
After listening to the entire group, the one that appears to be the better candidate is Ms. Gabbar from Hawaii. She appears to have all the emotional and skill tools to be in the hunt, especially this group.
What a shame, not one person here truly deserves a shot at being the next president. Please, will the next presidential candidate come forward for The Americans to review
Yes, the true left hates white guys
They look like a bunch of Cowfarts
I have no idea who most of these people are.
Hate Whitey has been the battle cry of the Democrats for a longtime.
Bit racist towards white men - are white men NOT ALLOWED to succeed or something?
STOP USING THE TERM 'ELECTABILITY ' JUST SAY 'WHITE' FER CRISSAKE
SOOOOOOO many voices crying in the SWAMP.
Had they not backed Hillary, the only person in USA disliked more than Trump, this wouldn’t be an issue.
24 democrats hoping for participation trophies 😂 And the party of diversity is backing the oldest whitest most corrupt candidate as their man for 2020 🤣
When the DNC opens the floodgates of “also-rans” to dilute Sanders’ immense popularity, this is going to happen.
Looks to me like a pretty good 'team'. 👍
what’s wrong if white men lead? do you hate white men? you are racist and sexist. Stop this identity politics. you are dividing people
you know why the LEFT has the been promoting and helping the invasion of WHITE CHRISTIAN Europe by Africans and Asians ? Because those poor, uneducated immigrants with savage cultures would bring W. Europe to it's knees and level the playing field Immigration refugees
TULSI2020
Wow 24 people and they still can't get nothing done.
Beep beep! The voters get to decide who is electable! And who are the voters? Whoever decides to vote! Don’t pay attention to electability get excited about a candidate you can get behind!
RI-SI-BLE !
They need 20 more candidates to ensure the loss
White men!!!?!?!? We can't be having that!!
First time since 2004 that white men have led the field.
Throw a few more in for three dozen!

In Race to Succeed Theresa May, Brexit Hardliners Lead FieldTheresa May’s decision to quit as Conservative Party leader fires the starting gun on a race to succeed her that will likely install a figure as the U.K.’s next prime minister who supports an abrupt break from the European Union. Yeah, that will make it better. 'Let's bring in an intellectually dishonest and totally ignorant labradoodle with a bad haircut.' Watch for more and more of this in Europe, all backed by the Russians. What will the Irish do?

Women Have Most of Top Roles in Campaigns for Leading 2020 DemocratsThe majority of senior aides and advisers on the top-tier Democratic presidential campaigns are women, and roughly a quarter identified as women of color, according to an analysis by The Wall Street Journal. Do similar numbers occur in recruiting, retaining and advancing in many professions and senior corporate positions in large organisations ...any surveys or public information on that? How many Republican Women of Color in Congress? How many in the White House? Oxford Uni in the UK: 2017 more than 50% female, approx 19% BME, 10% from state schools. Guess around 2% of total admissions are straight white males from a working class background? Overseas would dilute that number further. Numbers in the US?
