She's a big believer in minimum wage laws. Of course. She also said that 200 million Americans make less than $20,000 a year. Fact check much, honey?

In a convoluted way she is right because child labor laws prevent kids from working in factories and mines until they turn 16. I'm sure she will find a way to make that happen.

I'm bookmarking her Twitter page. Pure gold.

Did you know that the 13th Amendment abolished *some* slavery in the United States - but not all? I don’t believe slavery should exist anywhere in the United States. Including in our prison system.

Sigh

What a twat.

This person is literally the left equivalent of Trump on social media or even the MSM.   I honestly didnt think anyone could come off as less intellectual than he could and in comes "challenge accepted"  
Ive been hoping the Dems would give me something to believe in, anything... step back to the middle a little to try to reach those of us that arent on the extremes.... and this is what i get.

The DNC has started to distance themselves from her.

Oh i think they were more shocked than anyone when she won, but this is the kind of candidate they are creating with a decades worth of identity politics. 
Regardless whey should be distancing themselves from anyone named Clinton, Pelosi, Waters, and a few others but thats a whole other conversation.

A guy like Joe Lieberman looks positively attractive right now as a candidate.

Also, whatever happened to those "blue dog" Democrats like Jim Webb? Moderate and reasonable people. What a concept.

fwiw, Lieberman is 76. He'll be 78 in the election of 2020. Is that the guy you want to back?

I wanted Webb to do well, but he didn't have the personality for it.  He completely bombed at the debates.

If the Dems want the White House they need a charismatic man in his late 40s who doesn’t come off as a crackpot. Someone like Bill Clinton or Barack Obama.....

[fan_since79]

After Gavin Newsom becomes governor, he can start his 2020 campaign for the White House.

Charismatic, smooth talker, smiles a lot, 50 years old. 

Also, look out for Kamala Harris. Her star is on the rise.

aren't there any young mf'ers who meet that criteria? 

trump will be 73.

hillary will be 74.

lieberman will be 78.

bernie will be 126.

 

[Blarg]

That's the problem right now with both parties, they aged out. Both in policy and candidates, the two major parties are past the median age by too great of a margin. Without term limits these guys roost in Congress for decades and are embedded with no new blood taking over. It's up to state govenors to try and make a run if you want anyone under 70.
