Markers are already being laid down along racial and gender lines that could restrict Dem options for assembling a 2020 ticket. On Joy Reid's MSNBC show this morning, guest Jason Johnson warned:
JASON JOHNSON: What's the most important constituency for Democrats in 2020? Black women. And I've heard plenty of black women say, if there's not a black woman on this ticket, I'm not voting, I'm not excited, I'm not enthusiastic."If the Democratic party wants to run seriously in 2020, they can't relegate black women to second class. They can't relegate black women a consolation prize.
Not-so-joyous Reid then established an absolute racial test for Dems, nixing as an example, the notion of a Biden/Beto ticket:
JOY REID: They can't run two white guys. The idea that you have Joe Biden talking to Beto O'Rourke and saying maybe they could be a ticket. I personally find it hard to understand how you get the requisite turnout among voters of color if it's a two-white-male ticket.

Joy Reids latest attempt to dividevAmrtica and create hatred!
Warren / Beto
Harris / Warren
Beto / Swalwell
I haven’t even got to the Castros .. or the Kennedys
2020 .. the Year of Oblivion for the Left
or worse.
Oh boy, this’ll be fun. Liberals eating their own.
“...if there’s not a black woman on this ticket, I’m not voting,”
Racist, stupid and pathetic.
Ah, so that’s the selection criteria to run for the Dummycrat nominee.
Not competence, not patriotism, not previous achievement. But colour of your skin and size of your d*ck.
MLK would be a proud Trump Republican today. He wanted people judged by the “content of their character”
Sounds like Joy wants Trump to win in 2020.
I see a Beto-Booker 2020 ticket. Two young dynamic socialist idiots. With the Divine Miss K as a possible Booker substitute. Miss K was mentored by the best such as Willie Brown.
Just because Joy is against it doesn’t mean we should be for it. Biden-O’Rourke could be formidable.
Yeah, I’ve been anticipating this. A white woman lost, so of course the answer was that the candidate wasn’t diverse enough. Therefore, the only answer is to add more diversity into the candidate demographics - so a black woman.
Ideally, a black woman that self identifies as a man, but as a gay man - so not a lesbian.
These people will cut off their nose to spite their face. Insane. When they lose they’ll just claim sexist racism.
I wouldn’t mind if they ran two white guys. I wonder why Joy Reid would? /s
Kennedy-Castro 2020...yeah, that ought to work!;)
No problem, they have Beto, a “Mexican” (Irish-Mexican) and Elizabeth (Pocahontas) Warren (full fledged 1024th Indian)...they’ve got it covered.
LOL. MSNBC will a "split screen" of about 500 different "representatives" of the lib's special interests.
Democrats ran two old white crackers in 2016.
What if Joey Biden comes out as gay and running mate Burrito comes out as transgender? Would that work?
Funny how the white liberal snowflakes scream at these old white conservatives but the old white liberal progressives socialists they love. I guess it doesn’t matter joy
