    You could go on and on -- you could list all 20 of the most prominent Democratic names looking to run for office, and all 20 would be better choices than the current president. In order to get down to someone at his level, you'd need to be scraping the Al Sharpton end of the barrel.

    Come to think of it, Sharpton and Trump are practically the same guy. Each was an inarticulate, race-baiting TV personality with ridiculous hair, who came to political prominence first in the 1980s by very famously taking a public stance on a violent crime case that turned out to be wildly incorrect. Each lacked any experience in office, but decided to run for the presidency with the idea that a failed run would enhance his ability to sell shit to the party's base. The only real difference was that the Democratic voters didn't give Sharpton the time of day, while the Republican voters picked Trump to lead them.... because, you know, Republicans are ridiculous people.

    Anyway, regarding the five you listed:

    1. Joe Biden - highly respected and deeply experienced, with a set of policy positions that split the difference between what the base wants and what the establishment likes.

    2. Bernie Sanders - a guy so charismatic that he's managed to become a major political figure even as he openly calls himself a socialist in a nation where the idiot majority sees that as a dirty word.

    3. Beto O'Rourke - a smart young policy wonk, who managed to take one of the most powerful Republicans down to the wire in a highly conservative state.

    4. Elizabeth Warren - a woman with so much going for her that the only criticism her enemies can come up with is that she (correctly) claimed she had Native American ancestors.

    5. Hillary Clinton -- A woman who has won the popular vote in every single primary and general election she has ever faced, and has been the most respected woman in America nearly every year since 1992, according to the famous Gallup survey.

    It truly is a wealth of incredible options.

    Not one of those people should ever sniff power such as the Whitehouse, they are enemies of the republic!

    At this point, we need a younger Democrat that has a vision for the future that aligns with the generational needs of the Xers and Millennials.

    Boomers had their time; they blew it.
    Yes, someone who will I don't know, take more from the working, and give it to the non working, wait that is all you socialists have ever tried.

    I feel the same way toward Boomers; your votes are welcome, but your ideas and voices aren't.
    Which is exactly why the people you want elected must never be elected President, why not just force them to vote for your candidate under penalty of death and relegate them to poor housing comrade.

    Cory Anthony Booker (born April 27, 1969) is an American politician serving as the junior United States Senator from New Jersey since 2013 and a member of the Democratic Party. The first African-American U.S. Senator from New Jersey, he was previously the 36th Mayor of Newark from 2006 to 2013. Before that Booker served on the Newark City Council for the Central Ward from 1998 to 2002.
    Booker was born in Washington, D.C. and raised in Harrington Park, New Jersey. He attended Stanford University where he received an undergraduate and master's degree in 1991 and 1992, respectively. He studied abroad at the University of Oxford on a Rhodes Scholarship before attending Yale Law School. He won an upset victory for a seat on the Municipal Council of Newark in 1998 where he staged a 10-day hunger strike and briefly lived in a tent to draw attention to urban development issues in the city. He ran for mayor in 2002, but lost to incumbent Sharpe James; he ran again in 2006 and won against deputy mayor Ronald Rice. His first term saw to the doubling of affordable housing under development and the reduction of the city budget deficit from $180 million to $73 million. He was re-elected in 2010. He ran against Steve Lonegan in the 2013 U.S. Senate special election and subsequently won reelection in 2014 against Jeff Bell.
    During his five years in office, Booker co-sponsored and voted for the Employment Non-Discrimination Act (2013), tougher sanctions against Iran, sponsored the Bipartisan Budget Act (2013), voted for the National Defense Authorization Act (2014) and co-sponsored the Respect for Marriage Act (2014). In 2017, he became the first sitting senator to testify against another when he testified against Attorney General nominee Jeff Sessions during his confirmation hearing. In April 2018, following the FBI raid on the offices of Michael Cohen–U.S. President Donald Trump's personal attorney–Booker together with Chris Coons, Lindsey Graham, and Thom Tillis, introduced the Special Counsel Independence and Integrity Act to limit the executive powers of Trump.
    As mayor, he was described as a New Democrat and as a political moderate, known for defending Bain Capital during the 2012 presidential election and for supporting school vouchers. As senator, his voting record was measured as the third most liberal.[1] Considered a social liberal, Booker supports women's rights, affirmative action, same-sex marriage and single-payer healthcare. His youth, public presence, and political ideology have marked him as a potential member of multiple U.S. presidential tickets. When asked about his desire to run for executive roles in American government he has stated, "life is about purpose, not position,"[2][3] neither confirming nor denying potential runs for President.

    Republican Congressman Ken Buck:
    “We’re at a time in American politics, that I am not going to lie on behalf of my presidential candidate, on behalf of my party. And I’m very sad that others in my party have taken the position that, as long as we get the White House, it doesn’t really matter what we say,”
