Speaking to University of Chicago students at the universitys Institute of Politics, Perez said, I would welcome that because sometimes I hear people say we dont have a bench of presidential candidates, and I could not disagree with that more.
Perez didnt identify any candidates he expected to run, though former Vice President Joe Biden, U.S. Sens. Kamala Harris and Cory Booker, and U.S. Rep. Tim Ryan have all been rumored to be considering a 2020 run. The Republicans in 2016 had 17 candidates, forcing underperforming candidates off the main stage and into a second-tier debate. A double-digit Democratic field would be a significant increase on the half-dozen Democrats who ran in 2016.
I think that debate (would be) spectacular, Perez said. My job is to make sure the playing field is level.

Rubio ran despite being equally ineligible. Cruz was born in Canada to a Cuban father and he still thinks he can be President.
Born here of citizen parents only.
that should give us plenty of opportunity to divide and conquer.
Hillary Clinton and/or Elizabeth Warren - if still alive
Bernie Sanders - if still alive
Joe Biden - if still alive
A black woman - i.e. Kamala Harris
A black man - i.e. Deval Patrick
A Latino man -?
A gay -?
1 or 2 business people such the Starbucks guy, the Disney guy, and maybe that loudmouth from the Shark Tank - name escapes me
Some other random SJW
Maybe a GOPe crossing over?
Kinda like DWS did with Bernie?
“Democrats dont respirate oxygen.”
anaerobic creatures, right?
Sure, Mr Potty Mouth Perez....
Oh they have plenty of potential candidates, just not any good ones.
Democrats don’t respirate oxygen.
Star Wars bar scene....
Biden? Harris?? Booker???
ROFLMFAO!!!!!
They seemed to have learned from the republicans. The splitter strategy that the republicans used in 2016 would be very effective for the democrats. Get a favorite son local candidates to run in all of the big states, (Cruz - Texas, Kashich - Ohio, Rubio - Florida) that can split the delegates up so that there is no clear winner, and the candidate must be picked (Jeb!) in the smokey back room by the establishment.
With the number of superdelegates the democrats use, it would work on the demo side.
No Hillary???!!!
LOL. Yep a freak show.
By that time, Hillary will be The Bionic Candidate.
Don't worry...in 2020 they will wheel out Pelosi to certify Harris just like she did for Obambi.
Oh come on, Dems - let’s go for THREE!
Ryan is an old time Dem as we once knew...somewhat sane, but they won’t have the sense to nominate him.
Someone needs to ask Nancy why she used two different forms. One for Hawaii and the rest of the states got another.
Flake should run as a ‘Rat.
As if Hillary will allow that.
