Many of us strongly prefer @RepBarbaraLee to be the Majority Leader over Nancy Pelosi.
All I know is that when all of this is said and done, it's going to be a problem for me and thousands of others if the Democratic majority has no Black women in leadership.
PERIOD.

I just want someone who upholds our values and interests regardless of color. Isn't that more important?

They will also not be able to get away with running centrists just because they happen to be PoC, or women or both. London Breed is a perfect example. Progressives were bullied to vote for her for SF mayor, now she has proven she's to the right of tycoon Marc Benioff.

The race of the candidate does not guarantee they will be running in the best interest of POC.

Beto-Gillum or Gillum-Beto either way
-
The primary process is going to be exciting but whoever has the element of surprise and mount their ticket is going to win and look out for Hillary 4.0 Nixon lost his first time won his second history has a funny way of repeating itself

Thinking O'Rourke/Gillum. Balance
-
How about two people who can actually win in their home states?
-
Gillum is currently a Mayor. The mayor of Tallahassee. Beto is currently a member of the House, a congressman.
-
And they have both lost their last elections. If they cant win Texas and Florida, they can't win the white house.
-
I meant Statewide elections where all the states residents vote as opposed to a medium sized city or a congressional district.
-
I think they would fare just fine outside of their Red states.
-
But those 2 red States rank #2 and 3 in population and electoral college votes behind California. I'm not hating on those guys, but you have to win to gain power and that's too big a hole to dig out of. You have to think strategically. Chess not Checkers.
-
Those are red states where they got closer to winning than anyone EVER expected and they had immense support outside of their state. They did amazing things and very well could win in a run for president.

I think Harris-Beto is the ticket.

I believe this last round of mid-terms was the tremor that signals a seismic shift in the American electoral process; "business as usual" isn't going to cut it.

Stacey could run for Senate in 2020 too. Both Georgia Republicans are terrible.

It could be an all purple ticket for all I care...as long as the Cheeto is out!

I've said it before: Biden/Harris 2020. They compliment each other's strengths and weaknesses extremely well. And if Biden agrees to only serve one term, which he should, that gives Kamala Harris a terrific platform to run from in 2024.
