Warren, Biden and Sanders would all be seen as old hat, rightly or wrongly. No.

Kander lost, Kamala and Kirsten are too nice, Franken would be seen as a joke, Castro has the HUD controversy and Booker has too many skeletons in his closet. No.

The Dems need someone brand new and to cross their fingers for a miracle.

If Jason Kander won the Senate race in Missouri, he would be the favourite to get the Dem nomination in 2020. He's pretty progressive, a veteran, pretty charismatic, and fresh looking (), and seems to have no baggage. This was literally the best political ad I've ever seen:

Mess. This is a fetus. Will he even be 35 in 2020?

Mike Pence is trying to keep the contents of an email trying to rally support for a lawsuit against the Obama administration secret.

Now they want email privacy, right?

Reading a thread on twitter were Bernicrats are discussing Keith(for DNC chair), they are saying Oros has bought him and he's now part of the establishment and HRC and SOROS are threatening Bernie and his family to support Keith for DNC chair. Yall these people are crazy!!!!

They are even taking about how obama is power hungry and wants to steal the dnc from them . 😂😂

One even said I voted for trump because Obama and Hillary sold 276Billion worth of weapons .....
Welp they are also saying the only person they are trusting is tulsi. ....everyone else is a PAC puppet

I never thought it's like this . Wow is this how you Bernie Bros behave .

I don't think anyone is saying Bernie should run again (him running this year at 75 was pushing it), but he needs to be the face of the party now that the establishment elites have failed, and I think he kind of is now coming off of Hillary's loss due to the "what could've been" factor.
They shouldn't expect to find a fresh face with electric charisma like Obama (the ultimate anomaly) but, like someone else said, dismantle the system of putting all eggs into the basket of whoever's next in line and throwing all super delegates to them and rigging primaries. Whoever has the strongest message and has the most momentum, which is easy to tell, should be who everyone focuses on. After Trump's inevitable disaster of a first term, it should be easy to win with a strong candidate, bar an Iraq War / fear of more change situation like with Bush winning in 2004.

The DNC needs to do a lot of reevaluating. First off they need a new head. I loved Donna Brazile but what she did was unnaceptable and she has way too much baggage now. They need to consider getting rid of super delegates. And overall they just need a major shakeup if they hope to win again

Well what do you think most people thought of Donald Trump when he announced his run?

Booker doesn't really have too many skeletons in the closet either, other than being in the closet himself. If he continues to respond to it the way he has his whole political career "why should it matter if I was gay or not, are you basing your vote off of that?" then he should be fine.

The real positives of Al Franken is that he's very smart and quick witted. He would be amazing in a debate scenario when those little quick comebacks end up being what most people remember about the election (made with Chinese steel, because you'll be in jail, nasty woman, ect.). He also fits the same visual mold that Bernie did - old white cool Jewish man and would undoubtedly appeal to millennials.

Honestly how anyone can criticize Hillary at this point is beyond me. She gave 100x more than "Not Trump" when that should've been ENOUGH

The majority of Bernie supporters support Keith Ellison as head of the DNC. The type you're talking about prolly voted for Jill Stein.

Al Franken would be a kii

Hard to be the face of the party when you lose PoC votes significantly and make upsetting tweets like this:

Bernie SandersVerified account
‏@BernieSanders
I come from the white working class, and I am deeply humiliated that the Democratic Party cannot talk to the people where I came from.

We definitely need someone fresh and would lead the charge though and none of this preemptive support business.

It ignores the plight of PoC working class. This is why Bernie lost.

I wasn't aware that Millennials are the only demographics of the Democratic Party.

Nnn don't try to pivot now cause your wording was awful.

But yes, millennials, especially millennials of color, are the fastest-growing portion of the Dems.
