Wanna talk about 2020 yet? Of course you dont. We just finished an election. But theres already a poll out there about 2020!
Public Policy Pollings new poll takes a look at who Democrats want for their nominee in four years. (And before you ask, no, Hillary Clinton is not on the list.)
Joe Biden, who has not completely closed the door, is the choice of 31 percent of Democrats, compared to 24 percent for Bernie Sanders. Elizabeth Warren gets 16 percent, while Cory Booker, Al Franken, Andrew Cuomo, and others are in single-digits.
But whats most interesting about Biden and Sanders topping the list is this other kind of important metric:
Beyond wanting a younger candidate, only 25% of Democrats say they want their candidate in 2020 to be someone who has run for President before. 41% would prefer someone whos never run before, and 34% say theyre not sure one way or the other.

This is our last free election and democrats need to stop their infighting bullshit. We don't need to appeal to Trump's base. All we need is to fight voter restriction laws and not have old white bureaucrats as our candidates. Our vote can overpower their fake-ass "economic distress" which we all know is a sophistry cocktail of racism and propaganda.
But again, it's our last free election so
