2. Just wish there were more options

This is an oft-cited criticism w/ the Democratic party but I am genuinely worried how there are no rising starts within the Dems. We see Paul Ryan and others in the GOP but w/ the Democrats, it's the same names being tossed around from the prior election. Love Hillary but aren't there more good dems out there to give her a good fight in the primaries? Someone who is a Dem but who would rally up a different demographic of America?
