Sen. Cory Booker launches 2020 presidential bid
Chicago Sun Times ^ | 02/01/2019 | Associated Press

Posted on 02/01/2019 7:39:39 AM PST by Salman

U.S. Sen. Cory Booker on Friday declared his bid for the presidency in 2020 with a sweeping call to unite a deeply polarized nation around a “common purpose.”

The New Jersey Democrat, who is the second black candidate in a primary field that’s already historically diverse, delivered his message of unity amid an era marked by bitter political division.

“I believe that we can build a country where no one is forgotten, no one is left behind; where parents can put food on the table; where there are good-paying jobs with good benefits in every neighborhood; where our criminal justice system keeps us safe, instead of shuffling more children into cages and coffins; where we see the faces of our leaders on television and feel pride, not shame,” Booker said in the video, subtly jabbing at President Donald Trump.

Food on the table, good jobs in every neighborhood, etc.

Why didn’t all of this happen during the Obama years??? Why didn’t we achieve such a Utopia with Obama???

The Democrat’s primary is going to be quite the freak show. Their likely frontrunners are two Obama clones (one male, one female, though at times it’s difficult to say which is which) vs. a delusional wannabe Bernie Sanders who thinks she’s a Cherokee.

Shuffling children into cages and coffins???

What the heck???

How many “children” in coffins, are black gang members, who for whatever reason, get involved in crime, and go to an early grave due to their own poor life choices????

Then again, we aren’t allowed to talk about how and why so many people end up that way, aren’t allowed to talk about the collapse of the family structure in too many communities. We aren’t allowed to talk about a culture in which doing well in school is derided as acting white.

There are lots of subjects we simply aren’t allowed to talk about openly.

What is with this country’s electorate, needing and wanting to repeatedly idolize black leftist racist demagogues as presidents? What kind of self-flagellation is this?

Spartacus and Knee Pad Camel Harris would make the Marxist Dream Team. Their motto could be “Destroy America.”

The 2020 Marxist Liberal platform could be “murder babies and build camps.”

Booker is running.

Think of it. Hillary teasing she is coming back to run,Kamala already in the ring, Biden acclaimed as a sure antidote to Trumpism,Bernie himself running to turn America socialist , the Starbucks guy Schultz going for it,a draft Michelle Obama movement going strong, Oprah being coy but ready to run and probably ten more Dems ready to announce soon.

Don’t tell me we aren’t blessed.

I think Hispanics are gonna make a big push for Julian Castro. The Democrats are all about identity politics, and it will come to the forefront next year. There will be racial tensions in the race next year! Hispanic voters are tired of taking a back seat in the power loop of the RAT Party!
