I know that you like to spin many threads (pun). However, let us stick to the topic above.
What is the inequality to which you are referring?

plight of many americans is NOT within your field of vision..... blindness is NOT becoming jmo

Economic inequality is the new buzzword for the Left because poverty is being eliminated all over the world. Literally billions of people in the last forty years have been lifted from subsistence poverty to middle class as nations like China, India, and Vietnam replace socialism with capitalism. So politicians like Bernie Sanders preach the doctrine of wealth envy. Who cares if Bill Gates has billions? He has created a product that benefits billions so people keep buying it. And wealth? Once again who cares if the guy across the street from you have a million in the bank? He may have got it by working very hard for it, or denying himself goods and cutting coupons.


Back on topic, who will get Harris's supporters? Other women candidates like Tulsi Gabbard and Elizabeth Warren? Maybe this lets someone new up on the debate stage?

NPR has a story today about the upcoming December Presidential debates. The Democrats are worried about the optics of only having white people up on stage after one of the most diverse fields ever. Maybe they need to lower the standards so candidates like Cory Booker and Tulsi Gabbard can get an opportunity? Or they could create an undercard with Castro and the other minority candidates. Put it on PBS or CSPAN?

There's plenty of race baiters on MSNBC and CNN claiming racism for the lack of support for Harris and other minorities which I find hysterical. So they are saying there's a whole lot of racists on the left... oh my, what to do now? LOL

Isn't it possible that these people (like every other candidate on that stage) is just not very good and none have good ideas that make mathematical sense? Nope, must be racists and sexists.

I'm thinking there's going to be a lot more people jumping off the Dem ship as they finally understand how this party works. The identity of a person has absolutely nothing to do with a candidate's ability to lead yet that seems to be a major factor for the left. I guess MLK's words have already been forgotten by far too many.

Bizarre! 40% of African American Democrat voters are choosing Joe Biden instead of Kamala Harris and Cory Booker. And 30% of African Americans are choosing Trump according to Gallup. Could be a very unusual presidential race.

If you had to pick a candidate today that you wanted to lead the country and could beat Trump, who would it be?

So you're waiting to see if she's getting enough traction before you decide she's the one? Isn't there a candidate that speaks to your needs and wants as an American citizen... someone you would want regardless of what the polls are telling you?

I'm searching for someone, anyone on the left who can tell me about a candidate that inspires them... not because of their gender or skin tone, but because of the policies they are promoting that would help Americans across the board.

Anybody?

I stated previously, Seth Moulton was a potential,but his window was too narrow....sad, I would
have been extremely interested in his pov. I have stated before,Nikki Haliey,because of her UN
background AND she is straight up....I AGREED with her stance regarding the top officials attempting to persuade her to "ply" the king for them. STAND UP AND STATE YOUR POSITION AND LET THE FUR FLY....."cowboy up" to use a western phrase. THIS present state of our nation is a "hour by hour" decision ........facts are flying fast and furious, trying to keep up is
a full time job.....MOST PEOPLE DO NOT HAVE THAT LUXURY. And that is a disaster
waiting to unfold. mo

HA, you have about 8 people left to chose from and you conveniently dodged my question. You will be voting for one of these candidates, or you won't vote, or you'll vote for a 3rd party candidate (which has the same effect as not voting).

Are all those Trump opponents that bad that you can't pick one that best fits your wants? Seth and Nikki are not running so not sure why that's even worth talking about... Nikki Haley would have the best chance against Trump in an alternate universe (never been to one of those though).
