You have to have a lot of balls (Can Angel confirm?) to think about running for president again 3 weeks after getting demolished in your home state by a reality TV star and dropping out of the race in disgrace.

Back to the topic at hand:
The only answer for the Democrats in 2017 is real, strong, unapologetic, true progressives who cares more about the people and more about the real issues facing working Americans, and our young people. No more corporate Democrats. Donald Trump will easily win again no matter how bad he does during his term if the Democrats put up another centrist corporate Dem. Clinton's campaign had no subsistence. 70% of her adds were personal attacks against Donald Trump- not policy subsistence.
The Democrats need an inspiring message of change that they can get behind- free of the corporate shade. The Democrats will continue to be decimated without a clear image and strong progressive anti-corruption leader.
I hope a progressive will rise to the call, so Hillary doesn't think she gets the change to embarrass the party again. Losing to the ape once should be enough. We cannot trust the Obama-Clinton New Democrat wing of the party to win seats in congress, bring new young people in, or fight for progressive change. We need a candidate of the people. No more billion dollar machines hell-bent on coronation rather than engaging in democracy with a serious contest of the ideas rather than personalities.
My answer to this question of, who in 2020? Here's my breakdown of who think should run, and who should stay the hell away!
Acceptable:Jeff Merkley, Russ Feingold, Donna Edwards, Tammy Baldwin, Raúl Grijalva, Elizabeth Warren, Bernie Sanders, Jared Polis, Pramila Jayapal, Kamahla Harris, Ed Markey, Al Franken, Mazie Hirono, Tammy Duckworth, Judy Chu, Barbara Lee, Eleanor Holmes Norton, Maxine Waters,
Unacceptable/Will Easily Lose:Hillary Clinton, Tim Kaine, Corey Booker, Tom Perez, Donna Brasil, any Obama, Bob Iger, Mark Cuban, Bill de Blasio, Debbie Stabenow, Chuck Schumer, Bill Nelsen, Chris Murphey, Dick Durbin, Patrick Murphy, Joe Donnelly
I'd have to say.. my top pick right now is
Jeff Merkley. If he chooses not to run I hope Russ Feingold, Bernie Sanders, or Elizabeth Warren do.
I gave yall a lot of Dem choices that would be great. I urge the rest of you out there to seriously abandon any idea you may have for people like Clinton or any of the other listed horrible candidates. We need to win with strong progressive values. Personality poltics won beat Trump. Real substance in our fight for policies- only that will.
I will be in the fight for serious progressive change, no matter what may happen. Let's join together and fight for a more fair society, instead of allowing corporations to run our government, and in turn, our lives. Bernie's message lives on in so many young people like myself. We cant shun them, we must join them. That is the ticket to victory. Millennials are the largest generation in american history. We have the power. Now let's use it for the common good of the public, instead of never-ending wars & bailouts!
