The youngest potential candidates; Zuckerberg, Booker, Castro, are all god-awful.

How about Tim Ryan or Joe Kennedy? At least for VP.

Ryan is an ok VP pick for somebody. Joe Kennedy sucks, and people really only like the Kennedy's that got shot. The rest of the family is awful.

Garcetti and Murphy are younger than Booker, as are the House crew (Gabbard, Moulton, Ryan).  In any case, I think the point here wasn't that you should go as young as possible, just that you should think carefully about picking someone who's way at the other end of the age spectrum.

Garcetti would rather spend billions on the Olympics than housing for his cities massive homeless population. F**k 'em.

Murphy is okay but is the most boring Generic D candidate possible.

Gabbard has god-awful ties to things like the BJP

Seth Moulton? F***************************K no.


It's not that 'IT HAS TO BE BERNIE REEEEEE", it's that the drop in quality after you get past Bernie is so massive.

The LA Olympics could very well be profitable, and are very well thought out. The city government can't spend it's way out of homelessness anyway. Garcetti is amazing.

The Olympics have been a money hole for every city that's had them, hence why the only people that usually try to attract the god-awful spectacle are 2nd-world, bribery-rampant despot-states like Russia and Brazil.
