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.

What is at stake here is the push to replace Hillary as the party leader. These people kill babies in order to secure power. Just watch and see.

but it’s most of the American people who vote for these vile people that is most concerning.
///////////////////////////////////////
Yes. Rush said recently don’t waste your time trying to persuade and convince the others to change, just defeat them.
BUT
we almost always have roughly 39% conservatives. Before Trump got the nomination 39%, who will vote GOP in the midterms 39%, those who agree with the Wall 39%, all over the place. Thus, the mushy uninformed, lazy “undecideds” or “neither” have to be persuaded and voting for our side or we will lose and have 39%.

I’m only exaggerating slightly. The school systems (indoctrination centers)and surges of illegals have produced a large “always Dem” voting block. 95% blacks, all the pro-abortion suburban women voters who hate Trump and the felons in FL and elsewhere who can vote again add up each time. Too many bad guys.

Nixon in 1972 and Reagan in 1984 added mightily to their 1st election voters in their 2nd term elections.

I doubt we’ve added much to the 62,979,636 who voted for Trump.
P.S. If he ever starts pandering like past guys he will gain 2% and lose millions of his base. I am with him to the end and so are many of us on FR, but how many across the U S agree.

You may be right, and certainly their hatred for Trump is universal, and serves as a unifier for all the RAT factions. That said, it’s only a matter of time when you have many factions within one group fight amongst each other for a bigger piece of the pie!

“shuffling more children into coffins”

That must be after they’re hacked to pieces in abortions. Is that what he means?

He is going to rue the day he uttered “I am Spartacus.” You know President Trump isn’t going to let that one slide.

Obama was already on record saying those jobs weren’t coming back, ‘this’ is the new normal, he was OK with $4 per gallon gasoline...

If she is alive she will be the 2020 candidate even if it takes buying a house for all of those jokers like she did for Bernie!

Jazz hands! Jazz hands!

Fosse! Fosse! Fosse! Fosse!

I assume Spartacus melodramatically talked about his imaginary friend T-bone and cried fake tears into his little lace hanky.

LMAO!!!
