Democratic Primaries
Related: About this forumEmbarrassment of Riches: A / B+ / C / I ... My Rankings: 5 / 11 / 14 / 17. Yours?
I am undecided but unabashedly enthusiastic about a LOT of our candidates.
How wide and deep is this feeling?
Picturing each one of the 17 candidates actually winning the general, i ask myself, how would I feel?
- A-team: Truly enthusiastic about who they are and what they might accomplish
- B+: Optimistic about who they are and what they might accomplish
- C: Comfortable with who they are and what they might accomplish
- I: Incomplete but Infinitely better than Trump; I can breathe again that the menace is gone
I found that I have 5 on my A-team, 6 on my B+ list, 3 on my C-list, and 3 on the I-team. Seventeen out of seventeen would be infinitely better than Trump. Im not naming them because Im not looking to divide. But how broad is your support, how genuine is your undecidedness?
In cumulative terms, my enthusiasm for our 2020 candidates is: 5 / 11 / 14 / 17.
My A-list characters have a wide range, with diverse strengths that might be labeled as progressive, intellect, potential for uniting the country, toughness, inspiring.

imho many of these candidates are just working on getting name recognition for next election. And that explains my 10 in the I group.

(206,596 posts)I just haven't heard enough yet from the last group. But even if I know next to nothing - yet - I'd vote for every single one of them sooner than Trump!
