The Democratic Field For 2020 Is So Deep They’re Already Excited About…Joe Biden? by Andrea Ruth May 1, 2017
There were many amusing things about the 2016 election season but one of my favorites was looking at the differences in the Democratic and Republican field of candidates in late 2015. The Democrats, who will tell you all day about how the Republican Party is just made up of a bunch of old, white dudes had a handul of old, white dudes playing presidential candidate so the old, white chick they knew they were going to run before one primary vote had been cast looked like she had competition.
The Republicans on the other hand had a dozen and a half candidates that came from every possible background. From Bobby Jindal and Marco Rubio to Carly Fiorina and Ben Carson, the field was ethnically, gender, and socio-economically and educationally diverse. Sure, Republican still ended up with an old, white guy running against the Democrats coronated candidate, but it was a stark example of how deep the Republican field was.
Fast forward to 2017 and Democrats are already looking around for who would make a good challenger to Donald Trump in 2020. They know they can’t run Hillary Clinton again — although that hasn’t stopped some of the truly delusional from floating the idea –so who gets Democrats and the media whispering? What new, fresh face made a trip to the early primary state of New Hampshire to give a speech this week and set off excited whispers of “will he?”
Joe. Biden.
