It's a possibility I hadn't considered.
Bernie is certainly a front runner but I think he's too old (he's 75 now). Warren is also a contender but she's made statements that sound like she's not interested. Down the line I'm digging Kamala Harris (great record, Supreme Court possibility, young, etc.).

New blood please, I am over political dynasties

I think we are teetering a bit too close to the edge with our current cabinet of ex-generals to even think of one as a presidential candidate...
I think we need an economist who minored in climate science or a climate scientist who is a fan of of John Maynard Keynes...

I've seen enough encouraging comments from Cory Booker (junior senator from NJ) over the past year to at least consider that he's capable of being "presidential". Other than that, I got nuttin'
...which, obviously, is the problem for many of us.

Thanks for making me laugh. I needed that... or maybe you' were serious.... or right....
Whatever will be left of the Land of the Free under Trump.. Import Tax to build a wall???? Not even after Pearl Harbour such shame was proposed to congress. What next, a tax to finance concentration camps or torture centers??
Civil war is the least the US can come up with now. A good revolution now and then keeps freedom in good shape.
slow.
Wake up!
slow.
Colker, you’re not even close with that wall photo.
"Land of the free” applies to US citizens, not “Come to our country illegally, and everythings free”--which is the problem, which has been happening for years, which is why many support the wall.
Can anyone from any country just walk into your country and begin to work? Kids go to school for free? Free housing? Federal and state money?
I don’t think so.
I donīt disagree one bit w/ what you are saying: the US have no obligations to treat mexicans as american citizens.
Thing is: the US economy was aided by illegal work for so many years and now itīs no longer wellcome. Instead of admitting it, the US president calls mexicans rapists and drug dealers and tell them to pay for a wall. itīs beyond offensive: itīs proof of incompetence in the first place because border patrol cannot patrol the border.
Do you really believe drug trafficking will stop for lack of mexicans in the US?? You are only blocking that guy who is mowing a garden in California on the cheap.
Lies have short legs and donīt walk too far. This will blow on the US face in a very short time. It will strengthen the mexican character but will push for hatred for the US: a wall is a horrible symbol.
slow.

A severe change is a revolution. The left seems to have patented the “rights” to the name and the romantic images that comes with it. Like all the Che posters in Obama’s campaign headquarters.
This is REAL change.
Think of it as a balance to the past 8 years of profoundly left wing agenda/cabinet/government.
A pathological narcissist with authoritarian fantasies and profoundly undemocratic impulses elected President IS the revolution.
I'm deeply worried that half my country chooses not to see this, believing that he will make their lives better despite all the evidence against it.
...I will, however, agree with you that the Berlin Wall is not the Mexican wall. One was built by a country to keep its citizens from escaping. The other is intended to turn a country's neighbor - and one of its largest trading partners - into a scapegoat.
You are aware, I assume, that more illegal Mexicans are leaving the US than entering? You understand that he proposed that the cost of the wall will be paid by US consumers?
"all the Che posters in Obama's campaign headquarters"... Alternative facts! You've been taking instructions from Bannon! One volunteer in a Houston campaign office in 2008 had a Cuban flag with Che's image hanging behind her desk. Here's more for anyone who's interested in truth.
GO!
Mexico is willing to pay for the wall, they just think it is the wrong place.
A wall along the border shown below would be acceptable. (approx. the pre Mexican-American War border)
