discussion site...especially a site to discuss Democrats of which at least most of us are or should be.

We can talk about the Pope changing his pope hat for a political hat and his nationality and becoming a Democrat nominee if we want to. That's for VP, of course. He hasn't declared yet either. We can talk about a ticket with Barney Frank or Billy Jean King. (if she's still around) Get the point?

I only detect it around Hillary, too. She's not my first choice, either. But I'm a pragmatist and at stake are two appointments to SCOTUS, likelihood of all three branches in the R column. Also, kiss your Social Security "socialism" goodbye. Think it's bad now? We must have a winner THIS TIME (Hillary deniers) or we're going to fade into oblivion for a long time.

The Hispanic bloc is the fastest growing minority in the country, that's why they so feared the Dreamers.


Thus, Clinton/Castro 2016 !!! Then Castro/______ 2022 !!

Edit: OMG 2024
