If none of the candidates have enough ballots to win (or if the DNC rigs the results) an outside candidate could be presented to the convention without having to go through the process.

Yes, that was my comment about a fight at the convention. However, do you think its possible the a nominee, NOT CURRENTLY IN THE RACE, that is chosen July 16, 2020 at the convention, can mount a campaign, hire staff, and raise enough money to get elected 110 calendar days later?

In order to get the support of the radical left, the newly anointed needs to be a far lefty. If so, that far lefty would face the same problems the current set of clowns have - you can't win the general election against Trump pitching socialism. If the newly anointed is a moderate, the radical left will stay home.

If they wait until then, no. But what makes you think they are waiting until then to get organized? If the fix is in, they will have been planning for a long time. As for money, why does it seem the DNC is not raising any money (compared to Trump)? Could it be that money is being rasied but put aside for this stealth candidate.

As far as the candidate being a extreme lefty you are wrong in your thinking. The current clowns are creating the illusion of being extreme left but we all know they can not win by being extreme. What is needed is someone in the middle, so the candidate they pull out of the hat will appear to be a moderate (when compared to the current crop of candidate).

But, I am just putting out a theory. It may come true or it may not. I do agree with you, the Democrats are going to lose if any of the current candidates get the nomination.
