I’m interested to see what lemmy thinks of this, I honestly haven’t kept track of the potential options.
Mark Kelly.
Astronaut, has absolutely been an amazing husband to Gabby Gifords, impeccable background that is literally the American Dream, and untouchable character.
He would absolutely destroy Trump.
I’ve never heard of him until just now—one glance and he is elite. This is easily the best candidate they could field.
And he has a twin with a nearly identical pedigree, it’s insane. But I’d love to see a Harris/Kelly ticket.
It’s Donald’s turn to drop out.

An astronaut for president? That’s actually pretty catchy.
Also seems like an interesting guy outside of that.
Without a doubt the best option the Democrats have right now
Of course the Democrats are gonna run someone from offworld 🙄
Katie Porter + AOC
It would cause the right’s heads to explode.
I like Buttigieg the most, but I don’t think he has enough time to be built up for this election. I’d be excited to see him as a VP ticket, or for next election.
I think that Kamala is our best choice, but I worry that our country isn’t ready to vote in a female president. We’re still so ridiculously misogynistic that it would be comical if it wasn’t such a fucking travesty
Why does he need to be built up?
My fingers are eternally crossed for Whitmer
Katie Porter!!
Maria Branyas.
I think age is important, and Biden just didn’t have the necessary life experience to be a successful candidate 😉
You mean life expectancy?
Life
I don’t think that there are any that I would back 100%. There are a lot that I could support 90% or more, like Sanders and Warren. Even AOC.
OTOH, I also strongly believe in 2A rights–in addition to freedom of/from religion, freedom of speech, freedom of choice, etc.–and there simply are not any Democratic candidates that I’m aware of that support 2A rights. They always say, “I support 2A rights, but…”, and that “but” immediately precedes ideas to restrict 2A rights in significant ways. (“I support 2A rights, but I just don’t think that anyone needs a gun other than a muzzle loading Kentucky long rifle.”)
In short, I’ll never support any Republican more than, at most, 40%. I have yet to find any Democrat that I can support more than 90%.
Gun nuts are a scourge on the country.
People opposed to civil rights are a scourge on the country.
How about Mayor Joseph Fitzgerald O’Malley Fitzpatrick O’Donnell The Edge “Joe” Quimby?
Seems like a great pick for the role /s
Secretary (Mayor) Pete Boot-Edge-Edge. Can’t wait to vote for the guy now and/or in the future.
Turd Sandwich always struck me as an upstanding guy.
I think Cory Booker has potential. But a ham sandwich is the most electable candidate today. Just be somewhat alive and not problematic.
Tulsi Gabbard because she’s smart and tough
And a Russian asset?
Ah yes, the old “Russian asset” trick. I assume you have some reason for thinking this?
Quick question, serious question…can we make Zelenskyy a dual citizen, dual president? I’d be good with that.
One presidency is more than a full-time job. Whilst I do like him cut the poor guy some slack.
Ukraine can annex me any day of the week
You mean the actor? /s
Mr Putin, tear down these trenches
Not born in America. So he’s a no go.
Article II, Section 1, Clause 5:
No Person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States.
Even if he were a natural born citizen, he’d have to live in the US for 14 years first to be eligible.
Dude’s got more than enough on his plate, but maybe we could find an American comedian who plays piano with his dick
