As we continue through the 2020 race, I’ll continue to point out the strengths and weaknesses of Democratic candidates from the perspective of a lapsed Republican who, if the GOP does not throw out Trump, will be desperate for a decent, qualified and electable Democrat whom other ex-Republicans as well as center-right independents could support. I don’t expect the Democratic primary electorate necessarily will share my priorities or preferences for candidates who support moderate, constructive government and responsible world leadership. But Democratic primary voters should, I’d humbly suggest, understand that to win back the White House, they will have to win over a lot of lapsed Republicans and independents. Otherwise, we all wind up with the guy who can’t check off a single item on the list above.
