It's another week and I'm still holding strong for a Warren/Booker ticket.

They are a combination of strength and of diversity. They fill different roles. I don't know if they could work together well, and that is very important, but I like their strengths.

Nothing is gonna be perfect. But we have to have a ticket that shows our strength, our diversity and our character, in stark contrast to we know who.

How about your dream ticket so far?

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:

...if somehow the graves would open, or we could send a time machine back to the past. But since we live in the real world, I rather like Warren/Beto. That would give us a shot at texas--or at least, make the GOP spend resources there. And I think they'd make a pretty good team...

wonderful and has a really good future going forward.

But, in thinking this over, I just don't see us having an all white ticket. And I am pissed as hell that we haven't been able to elect a woman president in this country! AND, Booker has provable talent in organizing black communities. He's smart and strong, just as she is.
