WASHINGTON (CNN) — Former Vice President Joe Biden holds the pole position in the first CNN/Des Moines Register/Mediacom poll among likely 2020 Democratic caucusgoers, with Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders and Texas Rep. Beto O'Rourke joining him as the only possible candidates in the field with double-digit support.
The new Iowa Poll finds 32% of likely caucusgoers saying they back Biden as their first choice, 19% Sanders, 11% O'Rourke, 8% Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren, 5% California Sen. Kamala Harris, with the rest of the 20-person field testing below 5% support.
The top three candidates in Iowa, including O'Rourke's third-place ranking, match the top three in a national CNN poll released Friday. Early results nationally are often driven by name recognition, but in Iowa, the campaign is already underway, with several of the tested candidates having made multiple visits to the state, and at least one having already visited all 99 of the state's counties.

She's only 29. You have to be 35 to be president.
But not to worry, according to the empty-headed Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the age requirement only applies to male presidents because the Constitution refers to the president as "he".

Unfortunately for her dead-white-male schtick, the Constitution (Article 2 Section 1), fails to use the dreaded two-letter pronoun in setting the age limit to be president:
No person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty-five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States.
Roberto Francisco O'Rourke. The fake Hispanic from Texas.
Up against Elizabeth "Granny" Warren, the fake squaw from Taxachusetts.
Isn't identity politics a hoot?
It would do wonders for his intersectionality score.

The Irishman Robert Francis O’Rourke—-The White Shadow
The MSM doesn’t want to report that this poll found 72% believe Hillary would be distraction from the actual race. Iowa Dems rejected Hillary in 2008 and they reject her now.
As if any of them pay attention to that “worn out old document” any longer.
They couldn’t have cared less about Barry Soetoro.
35? Eh, who cares?
They wouldn’t even ask her for ID. They didn’t Obama.
