Warren is Preparing for 2020. So Are Biden, Booker, Harris and Sanders.
MSN NYTimes ^ | July 15, 2018

During a campaign-style tour of the West late last month, Senator Elizabeth Warren did not announce she was running for president. But in private events and public speeches, her message about 2020 was as clear as it was rousing.

In Salt Lake City, Ms. Warren urged Democrats to turn out in force for the midterm elections to build momentum for the next presidential race, and in Denver, she told a meeting of state legislators and trial lawyers that she wanted to be a tribune for lower-income Americans, according to people who attended the events. And in a speech to the Nevada Democratic Party in Reno, Ms. Warren said Democrats must do more than “drive Donald Trump and his enablers out of power.”

“I want a party strong enough to take on the hard job of cleaning up the mess they’ll leave behind once they are gone,” Ms. Warren declared, all but volunteering for the task

Before the trip and since, Ms. Warren and her emissaries have been reaching out to key Democratic officeholders in Iowa, Nevada and South Carolina — three states early in the presidential primary calendar — making introductions and offering help in the midterm campaign. Altogether, her moves are among the most assertive steps taken by any Democrat to prepare for 2020.

Ms. Warren, 69, now leads a small advance guard of Democrats who appear to be moving deliberately toward challenging President Trump. Former Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr., wielding a political network cultivated over decades, has been reasserting himself as a party leader, while Senators Cory Booker of New Jersey and Kamala Harris of California have emerged as fresher-faced messengers for the midterms. And Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont, the runner-up in the 2016 primaries, has been acting like a candidate as he considers anotherrace.

Agree. The key to destroying America is open borders and importing anti-American voters, particularly Hispanic.

Watching this caliber of people spar verbally at a debate, would amount to nothing more than comic relief.

Locked in their own echo chambers like they are the field will be crowded with people who believe Trump is vulnerable. Trump is building so much momentum I see the potential for a 2nd term election like we saw with Reagan. A national landslide. We shall see.

They should have a big field of contenders, since there is no Mr. or Mz Inevitable this time — even if Hillary gives it another try.

It will be interesting to see how far Left the money goes and how far Left the average Dem is willing to go.

I think foot in mouth assclown Biden would've beaten TRUMP in 2016

All those Democrats in MI, WI & PA would've stuck with Biden instead of taking a chance on TRUMP

Guess what Biden? You will LOSE in 2020

Those Democrats have seen GREAT results from TRUMP & no way will they be switching to Biden now!

Cory Booker is disgusting. He is shallow and witless, but he has the "optics". God forbid that he is the Dem candidate.

For the Dems, this election is going to be about the "optics". Biden and Pocahontas are out, too old and too white. Someone with a tan will be in there at a minimum.

Does Kamala Harris qualify? From wiki... Kamala Harris was born in 1964 in Oakland California to an Indian National Mother and a Jamaican National Father.
