Still taking suggestions for who should be added, in case I missed someone.

I did say that, didn’t I? I wasn’t thinking when I did that bernie bots would be telling me no hillary and hillary bots would be telling me no bernie.

I was looking for serious suggestions, based for example on someone having declared they weren’t running, or something along those lines. The list is long enough there is a distinct possibility that I put someone who really seriously is not a candidate on there. Sorry for the confusion!

Do whatever you want, it’s your blog. But you suggested it. “I’m starting a list, I’ll check it twice. Or more. The is the list in rough form. Please suggest who should be removed ”
Cheers

I think it is 35 years old to be President – not 45.

“I have hopes that maybe someday Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez will be in the running; that is, provided she’s allowed to season and doesn’t get messed up by DC”

Well, she’ll have to season first since she’s not 45 years old yet (not to be confused with “not being 45” as in Donald Trump 🙂 )

In an earlier post you said you went from voting for Obama (which nobody believed) to voting for Trump.

It didn’t work out so well for the Republicans in 2016 – having 17 candidates.

No one thought Trump could win, and one after another the better candidates dropped out – leaving Trump as the last person standing.

Of course I voted for Gary Johnson, as I couldn’t stomach voting for either Clinton or Trump.

If only the democrats and republicans hadn’t waste their votes, and had all voted for Johnson! (grin).
