Biden is followed by Bernie Sanders at 14%, Kamala Harris at 10%, Cory Booker at 9%, Beto ORourke at 9%, Stacey Abrams at 7%, Pete Buttigieg at 7% and Elizabeth Warren at 6%.'

Tim Ryan announces... Times says two winning strategies:
one through the rustbelt and one through Texas/ South. Tim Ryan could win Ohio...if he wins Ohio Trump loses . No Republican has ever won the general without Ohio.
'Democratic strategists see two paths to victory in 2020: winning back Midwestern states like Wisconsin and Michigan that narrowly went for Trump in 2016 or southern states with changing demographics such as Georgia and Texas.
You can put Tim Ryan firmly in the former camp.
The eight-term Congressman, who launched his presidential campaign Thursday on social media and on the talk show The View, represents the former industrial hub of Youngstown, Ohio, and he made clear that will be his primary selling point.
In tone and in substance, Ryan laid down a marker that he is going to focus on the working class voters.'

The day Biden announces give as much as you can to his campaign... I plan to max out.
We need Biden to win the primary. He can take the three states we must have...WI,MI And PA where he was raised. He might take Ohio. Biden is the only candidate whom we can count on to stop Trump. I will be driving but will respond as soon as possible to any replies. We can beat Trump...but we need an electable candidate.
Why would Lappos accuse Biden? In her own words...
I find this despicable. ME TO being used as a political weapon againt a decent man. Her story is ridiculous.
If Biden truly supports women and gender equality he would step aside and support one of the many talented and qualified women running, she added. The same goes for the other men who have thrown their hat in the ring. Women are 52 percent of the population. We are not a minority, we are the majority. It is time we are represented as such. After 45 male presidents it is time we elect a woman.

Think carefully about this which even if true ( I doubt it) is not me too.
Electoral College Map...we need a centrist candidate to win the rustbelt to stop Trump.
Please consider that in 18, it was moderates that flipped the house. We need to attract independents and maybe some anti-Trump Republicans.

I would like to point out that should Sen. Sanders win the primary and hopefully
the election, a Republican governor would appoint the next Senator from Vermont. We need to take the Senate and can not afford to give up Vermont. This is why although I love him, I was glad Sherrod Brown (Ohio) decided not to run. I am not a Sanders supporter for full disclosure. I don't care for Sen. Sanders but even if I did I would be concerned about the Senate.
GOP meddles in Democratic nomination with takedown of O'Rourke
This is hilarious! The GOP claims that Beto reeks of white privilege and is 'out of step' with his (Beto's) party. Hard to believe they expect people to fall for this crap. What are they afraid of? Could a Beto nomination turn Texas blue?

Yesterday the last car rolled down the line at Lordstown GM in Lordstown Ohio, I wept as I
witnessed this. Many watching the last moments face ruin and bankruptcy as there are not enough jobs to go around. MY son (twenty something) was lucky he was sent to Indiana last summer. Lordstown GM closed because of steel tariffs. Donald Trump is to blame.
It is simply to costly to make small cars in this country anymore-the tariffs combined with the poor sales of small cars sent the jobs overseas...and thousands will lose their jobs a result. The next time we have a gas price increase. Non-American workers will make the money. Foreign nations will profit and not us. The country that gave us automobiles will not longer manufacture them. It really is a dark day in the Unite States and does not bode well for our future. Below is information about the plant.
