The 2020 presidential election could feature the most crowded Democratic primary in decades, with scores of Democrats rumored as potential contenders.

The potential field could see some familiar faces as well as a mix of ambitious senators, governors and House members. But President Trump’s success as an outsider could also embolden more nontraditional candidates from the business and entertainment industries.

With no clear leader, the 2020 field should be a change from 2016, when Democrats had a small field of candidates, including front-runner Hillary Clinton.

Here are 43 possible candidates who could take on Trump in 2020:

Former Vice President Joe Biden: Biden, 74, said he “regretted” not running in 2016. He stoked major speculation about 2020 with a busy travel schedule but later said, “Guys, I’m not running!”

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.): Sanders, 75, emerged as a leader on the left after his 2016 presidential run, and he’s working with the Democratic National Committee to help unite the party. He wouldn’t rule out a 2020 run but said in January it’s “much too early” to discuss another bid.

Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.): Warren, 67, has become one of the biggest thorns in Trump’s side. In an April interview, Warren said she has no plans to run in 2020 and is focused on her 2018 reelection....

“Will it be the anti-White party?”

It is now, and will always be in the future. The Dems have made such a big deal out of “people of color”, that there’s no way of overtly courting white people without appearing to be racist as well as probably pissing off many “people of color” voters.

The Dems are the party of illegal immigrants, LGBT’s, disaffected females of all stripes, unemployed moochers, the racist subset (not all by any means) of “people of color”, “academics” (another class of moochers), government employee unionists, and teachers unionists. Based on the deliberate Dem strategy of slicing and dicing identity politics and creating disaffection groups, the above groups can not be made compatible with the middle-class, the working class, nor the white class. The Dems simply cannot have their racist cake and white people too.

They missed my dog.

Actually, I have 3 dogs, but one is too old, so add two Labradors to the list.

Maybe they can dust off Walter Mondale like they did in Minnesota after Wellstone died
