attention as they can right now, and except for their respective bases, I really don't see the public particularly focused on 2020 right now.

I actually think Joe Biden is our best chance to win the General Election. He can attract voters in some red and purple states, that will be very difficult for some of our other candidates to do.

Some of them believe that taking the populist view that corporations and capitalism are the "enemy", and socialism will "liberate us all", will resonate with the public, I think will find that in very critical area of the country that will not go over well at all.

Frankly, some of our candidates running, their position on trade is not too much different than Trumps, along with an isolationist foreign policy.

Thom Hartman was a big advocate of Tarriffs, along with some of the candidates we have running, are now conspicuously silent on that position.

I think Joe will announce when he will get the most bang for the buck
