but, of course, some more than others are preferable because of "electibility."

But there were one or two that would be a slight disappointment. We have a once-in-a-generation chance to vote for a progressive candidate to face the challenges of the 21st century, so I hope we settle on someone to really push back on the decades-long conservative drift to the far right.

Given the wealth inequality of our gilded age of deregulation and the crap-your-pants problems of climate change, I hope we get this right.

But I will vote enthusiastically for anyone who is not that orange bucket of racist scum.

then there are those I think are OK but I would be proud to vote for any of them. In the end they all.want the same thing that we all want they just have a different way of getting to it from the others.

They are ALL better than what we have now.

Fri Sep 13, 2019, 03:08 PM
Sep 2019

because as a Democrat, that is my duty. I don't need to be excited or motivated to vote because I know the winner of nearly every election and for certain the presidential election will either be the Democratic candidate or the Republican one.
I want the Democratic candidate to win and pride has nothing to do with that.

I'd be proud to vote for 9 of them but I will vote for the Democratic primary winner without a doubt. I'm glad the choices are all so capable.
