Ranking the 2028 Democrat Contenders

Democrats are still licking their wounds from then-Vice President Kamala Harris's defeat last November -- and grappling with the implications of President Trump's second term. For the moment, they are essentially a leaderless party. But that will change in due course. The 2028 presidential field looks wide open from this distance.

I'm not ready to engage in a discussion about Dem candidates. It's much too early. And right now I'd be surprised if there is even a legitimate election in 2028.

Not a bad list. However all of them have some serious flaws.

With this eclectic group of contenders, I'm really liking the Democrats chances at making a comeback in 2028.

Why? States, and Congress run elections not the Federal Government.

How do you not understand how your system works? I see this time and again here, people just not understanding how your country operates.

Then go on WoahIsMe BS post. Its hilarious.

I am surprised Shapiro is so low. Means the Democrats are going to be running on hot air.

They've already chosen Newsom. Democrats don't leave anything up to chance.

Stopped reading when I saw AOC as #2 and Harris as #3.

Don't kid yourselves, the Democrat candidate has already been selected for you. All that remains is to spin up the vote fraud machine. COVID made vote fraud easy in 2020. Republicans got smart closed some fraud loopholes and Democrats couldn't cheat so easy in 2024. The Democrats will change tactics and we'll see new forms of fraud in 2028. Republicans need to be vigilant.

I think AOC is more interested in Pelosi's old job as Speaker and bumping AIPAC Shakur's butt out.

Why? Surely you voted for Harris and would do so again.

You're the only brain-dead -------- that would vote for a fraud and a pedophile THREE TIMES.

But it's just as likely that primary voters(Progressives) want a more fiery and progressive standard-bearer.

And if they do that, they will lose. They still haven't learned.

Imo, MTG is giving more spirit than any Democrat at this moment.

Between Harris and Trumpy?

Seriously? After all that has transpired?

There should be no question as to who is more qualified. Unless you are in the maga cult, of course.

Solely to prevent Trump from getting back in office.

I was extremely critical of her as the nominee and thought it was a terrible choice and means by which the DNC went about forcing her on us.

Except for Gov. Andy Beshear, can anyone see on the fence Republicans voting for this lot? Nope.

Antiwar progressives and peace Samaritans from the Mennonite Central Committee, the War Resisters League, the Society of Friends (Quakers), Jews Against Genocide, the Jesuits, Vets for Peace, Progressive Democrats of America (PDA), Code Pink, and others will NOT vote for any AIPAC-funded candidate in upcoming national elections. Rather than vote for a Republican, they will either vote Green or they will stay home, just like they did in 1968 and 2024.

Anyone can see who won't be getting their crucial vote at these sites:

Hey, dinosaur AIPAC Democrats: Don't believe me? FAFO. Wasn't 2024 enough of a lesson for you?
