    But whoever the next nominee of Democratic Party is.. They better have a ? personality and the ability to sell themselves.. No more John Kerry or Hillary Clinton types...

    This right here.

    Clinton had that peoples champion charisma.
    Bush W had the Cowboy swag.
    Obama had the juice.
    plus all the 3 mentioned have accents .... seems to count for something when choosing a president.

    Hillary was just a pleasant lady robot in a pant suit.
    Trump is that slimey dude that can find his way into a club that the bouncer stop letting people into.

    Dems need someone with personality like Al Franken or Van Jones ( I'd vote for Van instantly ).
    Warren is qualified but I'm not convinced.

    Al Franken was funny back in the day he's real corny now.. And doesn't have that 'cult of personality' type of aura about him.. I like Van Jones but he's way to nice of a guy.. He was making some great points when he was speaking out about the whole "white-lash" thing.. But this ? in beginning like always was going on about the damn kids.. To me he comes off as Mr. Rogers type of ? .. So one like that IMO is not tough enough for the task that needs to be done...

    Warren is smart but too soft spoken,Democrats need a man like Joe Biden who is tough Democratic who can get aggressive and call Republicans on their ? .The days of Democrats playing nice is over.

    So I guess y'all preferred the status quo? Trump's presidency in the long term will be good for black people. Y'all watch this play out. I don't know about y'all but what has the status quo done for black people in the US? I'm ready for a real change and if it means 4-8 years of potentially a disastrous guy like Trump in office to get us to where we need to be then good.

    :(

    The holocaust was terrible for Jews but in the long run how did that affect Jews? Exactly. Not saying we're heading to a holocaust but the point is sometimes we need to hit rock bottom before we rise up better than before.

    Any person that honestly believe having someone like Trump as President will somehow miraculously unify the black community are delusional naive damn fools


    And thing is Tariq knows this!
    He knows it "sounds good" to say and there are black people who will unquestionably beleive it
    All having an open white supremacist as President will do is "unify" THEIR money with HIS bank account...lol

    Warren should've ran this time...woman, populist message, charismatic...

    If trump is really vulnerable in 4 years then people are going to want an "established" candidate...

    If not for the fact she was Canadian, the previous governor of Michigan -- Jennifer Granholm. She was actually an rising star int he Democratic party and even moderate GOP voters in Michigan like her as well. The only thing stopping her from running was basically she was born in Canada ..that's it.

    A woman will not be running as the presidential candidate for the Democratic party. They have learned their lesson, which is that the white males (and females) within their base will not support a woman. It's as simple as that.

    That ain't true. It wasn't about the candidate being a woman. It was about the candidate being Hillary.
