I'm impressed by the diversity of our candidates.

According to Wikipedia, we have 17 candidates currently running with 9 more who may or may not enter the race. This is not an endorsement of anyone but in 2020 we might elect any of these people.

The first female president.
The first gay president.
The first Jewish president.
The first Hindu president
The first Hispanic president
The first Asian president
The first black female president

This is nothing against the four white, heterosexual, christian men who are in the race. I'm impressed with each them as well. I remain undecided. It is difficult choice with so many good candidates.
