Gov Inslee.. who is Obviously Reality Based.. Thanking Hillary for what she accomplished with early childhood education.

But seriously, folks, I just watched John Hickenlooper on with Lawrence O’Donnell, and he seems like quite a reasonable guy. But he doesn’t seem to have solidified all his ideas or positions.

Game Inslee. At least so far.

It took me 1 second to get that.. I had to go way back in my memory bank. lol

I really like Gov Inslee and I've only just met him.. with the two vids that ancianita has posted!

Yeah, Gov Inslee seems real solidified. He and Kamala are my two faves now.

9. I hope you're right because he needs an early start due to low funds and name recognition.

I hope the whole range of candidates get their share of airtime on MSNBC which, right now, is leading cable news networks in viewership.

Rachel's been a top introducer of less well known candidates so far. I hope she revisits them later.

I hope Bill Maher, who's BIG on climate change, gives Inslee some Real Time.

If he gets a well timed endorsement from Al Gore it should put him right into the thick of things.

funding increase in the nation, best economy in the nation (jobs!) -- so annoying when some people claim that these Democratic policies and values helping the working/middle classes weren't around until 2016. Look, here is a Democrat who gets things done, thanking another Democrat who gets things done.
