American politics

hey there was some interesting information on fox news radio recently about the change in political demographics in Colorado and how different political segments there tipped over from red to blue and how they prospered under Obama.


so it might be interesting to consider whether the Democrat party in the u.s. will consider fronting someone other than Hilary.


first of all, let me say it was extremely obvious to me that Tim kaine was a very bad choice for Mrs. Clinton's running mate. I don't know much about him other than he's been a successful Governor of Virginia, maybe a senator, not sure, but I think governor. During 9/11 when I was staying at like 1005 grove on the eaves of vcu there, we had two sparring governors immediately across the road debating for some upcoming election there, I think maybe mark Warner was one of them. I generally don't have hateful or even disrespectful opinions of u.s. Politicians although I will say I think Bill Clinton was somewhat shady and Hilary is all related to that. Anyway definitely I don't know much about kaine or have a bad opinion of him but I could see he was definitely the weakest link, to quote from a popular tv show in those grove ave days. That's for sure, the logical conclusion was that ticket would lose. Wishful thinking and self delusion and doubt or blind optimism from media doesn't sway my opinion in any way.


therefore Democrats need to find a new leader, I don't think Hilary can win in 2020 even with a really kickarse running mate. Likewise the Party should steer clear of Elizabeth Warren and Pelosi. Running a woman or a black person just because it's non gender specific neutral hazing Swiss cheese or whatever is futile, what matters is the person. Actually someone like Comey or Bill Gates could really have a good shot. People realize just being a woman or black isn't necessarily an important consideration.


also it's interesting to see that the media can't just impose their will through soft power like with this constant Russian meddling business, that isn't going to help Democrats at all in 2018 or 2020 Trump will be hard to beat in 2020 for the economy but you never know what the future can bring.


definitely Hilary has huge allies in los Angeles in tv entertainment but that can actually be a liability for Democrats.


Lao Tzu said that an army without flexibility never wins a battle, therefore when the battle is joined, the underdog will win. So the pro-Democrat party media, columnist too, they need to think about that leading up to picking their next presidential contender instead of everyone just piling onto the quarterback, maybe he already threw the ball.
