TRAIT #2: The candidate who defeats Donald Trump must be able able to win the electoral college. This means they must deeply resonate not just in New York & California, but in 25-35 other states in midwest and south. This is much more difficult than it appears.
TRAIT #3: The candidate who defeats Donald Trump must electrify young people. Hillary Clinton was the first Democratic nominee in decades who was not also the #1 choice of young people. Bernie won all people under 30 across every Demographic. But Hillary got the nomination.
TRAIT #4: The candidate who defeats Donald Trump must present a clear, stark contrast to Donald Trump himself. They must have integrity, principles, values, must stand for actual policies, etc. A candidate who muddies the water with Trump will be very problematic.
TRAIT #5: The candidate who defeats Donald Trump must have a proven record of fundraising. This will be the most expensive, consequential presidential campaign in modern American history. The candidate cannot rely on the Democratic Party itself to get this right for them.
I'll close there. I have dozens of other things I look for in a presidential candidate that all deal with policy. But the 5 traits I just shared are what I strongly believe we need in a candidate to defeat Trump. VERY FEW people, sadly, fit that bill. 3 to 4 people.
Again economic populism is very popular with millennials. It has to be a socialist.
Bernie
Trait #1 Candidate should be a real Dem, have policies that will garner legislative support, support the Magnitsky Act, gun safety laws and release their tax returns.
Bernie. He drew crowds of 45K and 60K.
John Kerry was that person?
Yeah, pretty sure Howard Dean had the youth energy in 2004.
i’m not saying Kerry didn’t, just that if he did I would be surprised
Can he really say he 'won' them if they didn't turn out to vote?
Trump won't make it that far, and he's already shown America and the world just how inept a "ruler" he actually is. Things will be so bad for so many whites, that they'll happily vote for anyone that has no association with the Trump name. Again, he won't make it that far tho...
Why the need to electrify young people?
Because the DNC screwed Bernie for Clinton
Hillary and Wasserman Shultz STOTLE the nomination! In a just world, they would still be in jail!
Hillary rigged the primaries. The DNC and Obama rigged the primaries.
