Attention Hillary PRIMARY voters only!

[Hammy]

No--another run would show an utter lack of awareness to how disliked she is by voters. I don't currently have a top choice at the moment though, it would depend entirely on who runs.

[Technocracy Timmy]

I'm not voting for her again in the primaries. I prefer anybody who either wins the Iowa caucus and/or is from the Midwest.

[Rookie Yinzer]

Unless she somehow is only running against an insane Neo-nazi climate change denier then no I am not voting for her.  I like and respect her but she had her shot and lost.

[Kamala]

Under very specific circumstances - Hillary effectively gets drafted into the primaries rather than the effective coronation of 2016. If the wings of the party cannot agree with one another and decide Hillary would be the compromise candidate for the Dems, someone whom both wings can coalesce around.

[Liberalrocks]

Of course I would.

[Warren 4 Secretary of Everything]

No, I'd support Bullock, Franken, or Kander. It's the Year of the White Man!

Probably not, but it's possible if the other choices are bad.

Even though people who don't like her are objectively wrong, they're not going to change their minds, so we have to move on.

[heatcharger]

Lol, people on the forum are gonna make Hillary threads until the day of the Iowa Caucus.

Anyways, the other options would have to be complete dopes like Kanye West, Alan Grayson, or Tulsi Gabbard.

[Suburbia]

I could see vanity candidates like Alan Grayson run. However, Grayson can win the nomination, especially if there is no Sanders, Warren, Merkley.

[Cory]

It would depend on who she was running against, obviously.

[Maxwell]

I'd vote for Hillary over Gabbard or some actually scary Democrat, but beyond that no way. She was supposed to be the safe bet candidate and was anything but. Pass.

[MAINEiac4434]

If she was the strongest candidate, then yes.

[Shameless Lefty Hack]

Hot take: everyone making Hillary 2020 threads are just David Brock on many sock accounts.

[Progressive]

To be clear: I don't think she'll run in 2020. I'm merely trying to pick the brain of people who, like me, supported Hillary in the primaries and therefore preferred her over Sanders.

[HagridOfTheDeep]

I would enthusiastically support her.

[Beet]

I would support her if she comes out swinging mad.

EDIT: Part of me is sad that when a woman finally becomes president, it'll be probably be someone else. Even if it's a woman who's better at politics than her, who has all the positions I agree with, who is younger, who has a lot more enthusiastic rallies, and so on, it will be very sad that it's not Hillary. It feels like cultural appropriation, someone taking her place. Hillary will always be the one who cut the path through the patriarchy with her very flesh and bone, her existence, just for some other woman to walk through. Pretty disgusting, actually.

[Crumpets]

I wouldn't unless there was some actual massive movement to put her in office, where her numbers against Trump dwarfed the ones she put up early in the campaign in 2016 - so something in the way of a 30+ point polling lead. I don't see that happening.

Right now my top candidates are Biden, Gillibrand, Klobuchar, Harris, and Franken. I suspect no more than two of those will actually run, so I'll make up my mind once the field gets clearer and more polls come out than just Sanders, Warren, Biden, and Booker against Trump.

[Adam Griffin]

Lol, people on the forum are gonna make Hillary threads until the day of the Iowa Caucus.

[TomC]

No. Ethics matter.

[Pollster]

If she were running against Sanders again or a similar candidate, absolutely yes.

Against Klobuchar, Biden, Kander or Gillibrand it would be a much harder decision.

[Lemmiwinks]

No. She lost an easily winnable election and 2020 will be too important to risk her blowing another one. I don't have a preferred candidate in mind, but I'd gladly vote for Biden, Booker, or Cuomo off the top of my head.

[Sumner 1868]

You actually believe amy female president is (basically) stealing from her efforts? Did Clinton steal from the efforts of Shirley Chisholm?

To the extent that Chisholm advanced women's status in politics, of course. Every daughter stands on the shoulders of those that went before. But Hillary really ran the gauntlet. Not just her, but her entire generation. It almost breaks my heart that some Gen X/Millenial/post-Millenial snot who went through 1/10th of the misogyny she went through may break the glass ceiling, but alas it's inevitable.
