I did remove that adjective, since it's redundant to describe any politician.

Kirsten Gillibrand announces 2020 presidential run
- Thread starter RastaMentality
- Start date
If Biden gets the nom no way Beto gets the VP pick. There's no universe where the democrat party in 2020 decides to body Trump (of all people) out of the presidency with two white men in their ticket.
Like I said previously it'll be Beto and Kamala for VP but the other way around I'd be ok with.
This is pretty much the normal timeframe for people to start with the exploratory committees and the like
I think this is about the time people have to start announcing.
Especially since the debates have been moved up to June of this year. Last time, they started in October.
She's my top choice at the moment. It'll be interesting to see where her campaign goes. I think she could be a decent socdem president if we win the Senate considering how far she's tacked to the left over the past few years.

Dude, Trump just makes shit up. You could literally be perfect and he'd just make up some cheap crap to attack you over.
She took more progressive positions once she stopped being a representative of a Bush/McCain district and was the representative of the entire state.
LBJ went from an open segregationist to giving one of the greatest speeches in favor of Civil Rights in history.
I also don't think it's a terrible thing to not be only interested in politics and adjusting your views to account for that every day of your life.
This carries about the same authority as one of those Telltale Games popups.

She really is the perfect VP candidate. I dont think she had enough of a base with people like Beto running to win
Warren hasnt even defeated Wells Fargo after all these years. What a loser!
Her congressional district went for Bush but not McCain. Around the time she got elected into the House, her district supported Obama. But still, it's a good point. The Capital District of NY may lean Democrat, but it's probably more moderate than downstate. There's definitely a difference in constituencies when it comes to serving as a Congressperson vs a Senator.
Yeah transformations are possible.
I think you're thinking of McCaskill?

It has been reported he plans to wait till March to announce as he doesn't need to quickly hire a fundraising team like the other candidates do.
This is a fantastic wrap-up of her cred. Her team did a phenomenal job with this.
We'll see how see performs on the trail.
Ty for clearing that up. I knew it was someone who wasn't a man.
She knows which way the wind blows before everyone else. She's going to be a force whether people recognize it or not.
can't wait to prove your wrong. suckin toes is going mainstream!

Wait it's JILL-a-brand and not Gill-a-brand? This is the 2nd time this week I've been rocked by the sudden realization I have mispronounced a politicians name for a long long time.
I thought Kamala Harris was pronounced Kuh-MAH-Lah like the WWF wrestler from the 80s and then this week I saw a video with her and it turns out it actually rhymes with Pamela...

Trump has no power to cancel elections. None at all. Zero.
This isn't a will he/won't he thing. He literally cannot do it.
ANNOUNCED/EXPLORATORY COMMITTEE:
Julian Castro
John Delaney
Tulsi Gabbard
Kirsten Gillibrand
Jay Inslee
Richard Ojeda
Elizabeth Warren
Andrew Yang
UNANNOUNCED BUT OBVIOUSLY RUNNING
Joe Biden
Cory Booker
Sherrod Brown
Kamala Harris
Amy Klobuchar
Beto O'Rourke
Bernie Sanders
Plus some others (Bloomberg, Hickenlooper, Garcetti, etc.)
They'll weed out people by requiring them to hit a certain number in polls to be on stage. I'd imagine the initial debates will probably look something like:
Joe Biden
Cory Booker
Sherrod Brown
Kirsten Gillibrand
Kamala Harris
Jay Inslee
Amy Klobuchar
Beto O'Rourke
Elizabeth Warren
Bernie Sanders
I don't have any fond preference for Gillibrand but it doesn't hurt to have her run and I'll certainly vote for her if she is the nominee.
A chaotic mess that will have Trump be its most dedicated watcher and tweeter! Expect to see a billion tweets mocking the candidates as they debate.
