(24,122 posts)I'm all for proper vetting... but, when we get into comparing candidates by counting the number of people in the crowd according to their race, and even making comparisons of Bernie to the TRUMPSTER-FIRE(!!), as I've seen lately, that just seems WAY over the line to me and unnecessarily divisive.

As I said before, if I was the kind of person who'd support a candidate who'd try to overset the will of the voters and force himself on them, I'd be a Republican. They're much better, to put it mildly, at election theft, and I require competence.
Kamala Harris: Good character, integrity, competence, true forward thinker and achiever.

(58,785 posts)Kamala Harris and most of the other candidates are very intelligent, competent people who have their heads on straight and would never deliberately or inadvertently elect what the Republicans have become. People we can trust.

(58,785 posts)Long ago I liked seeing third-party candidates offering different ideas and giving those repelled by what appealed to the vast mainstream other choices.
But for some time now elections have been won and list by very thin margins, the ship of state rocking as uberpartisan groups try to disempower the rest of the nation, and it will continue for some while until we stabilize.
What we know is that EITHER the Democratic Party or an increasingly neofascist White Christian Supremacist Party will be elected and take power in 2020.
There is no third choice.
That means that we can't afford to indulge any preference that might lead to throwing the election to the Republicans. Again. Please remember the atrocities they are committing right this minute, in red states not just under federal law, with much worse ones to come with greater power, and understand that everyone who does not commit to stopping them is responsible for them.
But we have to vote for people who can and will make it happen.
