at least for now.

As I hear more, I tend to waffle on this...most of them are pretty darned good.

Still like Sanders, but want to hear from new candidates before making my mind up.

Also like Swalwell, but not sure he's ready for prime time.

Beto is honestly the only one that truly inspires and motivates me and makes me wish I didn't have health issues so I could volunteer.

Biden is the safe choice, the one I am 100% confident in being able to jump into the role on day one and have no learning curve.

Klobuchar/Harris/Booker are all candidates I'm fairly familiar with due to their current roles and I have not heard them come across as being too far left for my taste.

Harris, Inslee, and Klobuchar.

In that order.

Any combo out of that 5 works for me.

Is the only one on my list so far. I don’t think any of others can win. But whoever the nominee is they will have my vote. I like Harris, Warren and Swalwell so far and some of the others seem pretty good. I have never been one to fall in love with or get excited about a candidate. I vote for the best candidate in the primary and the dem in the election and that is that. Now it is a matter of winning primarily. Who can beat dump.

I would vote for any of the current Democratic candidates in the general election. I don't want to hear any more of the "I just can't support the lesser of two evils, so I'm voting 3rd party" garbage.

Harris, Warren, Inslee in no specific order.
But whoever the Democrats pick I will be working for.

Elizabeth Warren and Amy Klobuchar round out my top 5. There's only a few of our candidates I don't care for, but I would vote for any of them over the orange menace in the general.

Although I also like Booker and Warren to round out my top 5.

I really like Harris and Warren and my third is sort of up for grabs between Buttigieg, Gillibrand, and Kloboshar.

Not complicated. I believe all 3 are likable and charismatic enough to survive the Trump/GOP onslaught.

I believe Klobuchar is the sharpest of the lot and would charm the nation while frustrating Trump. But I'm not going to kid myself regarding the 1-2 crucial points were surrender by nominating a female.

Biden, warren, and Harris.

Buttigieg, Biden and Harris. It is easier to say who my bottom three are, Sanders, Gabbard and Gillibrand. I could easily vote for any of the others in the primary.

I love Warren and Inslee, but don't think either could win in the general election. My #1 concern is beating the pants off the Dotard (Ew. Bad visual, sorry.)

thanks

I'm hesitant to jump on the Mayor Pete bandwagon

Warren seems lost; Booker-why is he running except to take votes away from Harris; the others are white men, and yes I know Biden is an older white man but he served with Obama which goes a long way in my book

maybe Klobucher

Sen. Sanders and Biden following the above three.

There is no candidate I have excluded for consideration in the primary, and none I wouldn't support in the general.

We have many fine candidates to take down the trump regime in 2020.

It's only April 2019!

Warren, Warren, Warren.

I honestly didn’t know there were separate forums! But I deleted it before explaining what I was doing and then it was too late. Reposted it in the Bernie forum.

so early in the race, very few of us will be 100% committed, but some have found personal top tiers. in the "who would you pick today" DU clicky poll and at the ballot box we only have one choice, but we have many cool candidates.

Which I understand now. I think I was just airing my 2020 anxiety too publicly. But the question, minus all my reservations, is a good one.

Fantasyland ticket is Biden/Obama (Michelle), just to give Trump and half of his supporters a coronary. I think enough of them would spontaneously combust to throw the election, starting with Sean Hannity (what does burning Brylcreem smell like?)

Joe Biden, Beto O’Rourke.

I think he is the most likely to build a winning coalition.He is white, male, straight, and personable and old enough to satisfy those who think they want a daddy figure.

Because of her brilliance, Warren is #2.
Then Harris.

I will vote in the primary for either Warren or Sanders, unless another credible left candidate enters in the meantime. I will vote for the Democratic nominee, whoever that is, in the general election.
