Klobuchar-MN/Booker-NJ could be a winning ticket for Democrats in 2020.

A white female Democrat from the midwest for President, a black male Democrat from the MidAtlantic/Northeast as Vice President. Klobuchar/Booker could turn PA-20 (252),MI-16 (268) and WI-10 (278) into blue states.
Booker could run for President in 2028 after 8 years as President.

Castro is young Hispanic male from the South. He could put TX in play and turn AZ and FL into blue states. Castro could run for President in 2028 after 8 years as Vice President.

public education will probably be pretty high on the list, and I'm not sure I trust Booker in that regard. Not sure about Klobuchar, either. Hopefully she's not on board with school coupons.

Get active with your Congressional district if you want to live until 2020

Democrats have a better chance winning CO-3 and CO-6 before CO-4 but we need a top tier Democratic candidate in both of those Districts.

The people gave their Congressman a tongue lashing. Don't underestimate the damage Trump,is doing.

She has been on air waves recently and I found myself much impressed.
