      I hope @BetoORourke runs for President. I truly believe he could win. I just think the Democratic primaries need the very best we have to offer and he's in that group to me. Yes, I have a few substantive policy differences w/ Beto, but I believe he'll address them.

      I think we need to take a step back and figure out what we want out of the next president before we start talking about who should be the next president. Devolving the debate into a battle between personality cults is kinda how we got Trump in the first place.

      I don't disagree. I'm having those talks and tweeting at the same time. I am a big advocate of a competitive primary.

      No doubt, but I think there’s a fundamental question of what exactly the role and positions of a Democratic President should be that needs to be answered before we start to throw out names. We won’t win if we chase a dream without a plan for what’s possible.

          2016 already looked a lot like 1968. We can’t afford another milquetoast Democrat. We need authenticity and courage.

          I think we need to disabuse ourselves of the idea that Trump will be running again in 2020 and not think that the natural move for the party would be to nominate a reactionary anti-Trump candidate. The question is, who running now can set the party up for the long term?

          Politically. We’re at an inflection point and I think they Trump may very well not seek re-election. The Republicans now look like the Dems did back then with an unpopular President pushing unpopular policies with the rest of the party stuck carrying the water.

          It will though. Neoliberals are fighting the left to retain power. Even though we have to go left to stop fascism and climate change. And now you endorse that fight against the left?

          Seriously. The left candidate is just so obvious. I’ll ultimately vote for whoever wins the primary, but I’m pretty sure I don’t need to say who the most committed (on every issue...though of course flawed) left wing candidate is.
