New Democratic National Committee Chairman Tom Perez didn't rule out a Hillary Clinton run for the presidency in 2020 on Sunday.
Perez, speaking on ABC, was asked about Clinton's continued political statements in the wake of her 2016 defeat to President Trump, including just before the vote for the new DNC chairman Saturday. He said she can run if she wants.
"Everyone who wants to run should run," he said of the 2020 Democratic primary. "And, I'm confident we're going to have a robust field of candidates."

I totally agree ... between Granny Pickles, the Aging Communist from Vermont and the Fake Indian ... the Democrats will indeed have a robust field of candidates!
Rats. Beat me to it. I’ve the same picture.
Perez will be out of the DNC Leadership w/in 6 months, tops! He’s just a ruse to get Ellison in when Dems knew if they voted for Ellison directly, it would kill their party.
Ellison will be DNC chair by the time of next presidential election cycle.
Does she live that long?
Go hilLIARy...GO!
It's probably a moot point though. Trump has done nothing but build on his support in the Rust Belt since getting elected. Without PA, MI, WI and OH, the Democrats have no realistic chance of making Trump a one term president.
She’ll have the octogenarian vote locked up..................

“The Democrats have a serious problem with their bench. They don’t appear to have any superstars rising through the ranks that could run for the presidency in 2020.”
That’s how things looked just before Carter, Clinton, and Obunghole.
Hillary should be at the top of the ticket until she is 95. She has earned it through her decades of public service, and she is smarter than everyone else.
That’s fine. She will be a googly eyed drooling mess in 4 years.

Ellison will be DNC chair by the time of next presidential election cycle.
It would not shock me if Hillary ran again. It would shock me if they nominated her again.
Good point. In order for the Dems to have a chance in 2020, they have to find somebody new. I don’t see them unseating Trump with what they have right now. And that Rust Belt sure does look like a solid lock for Trump in 2020. He may even pick up MN this time around. Still way too early but I like what I’ve seen out of Trump so far.
Cory Booker
Joaquan Castro
Julian Castro
Gavin Newsom
"Old warhorses" are out of the question for the Democrats now.
Three out of four on the down lo’!
No, he will be none of those. It will be Kamala Harris.
In the bizarro world of dems, dead people vote, so why shouldn't they be allowed to run for office?
