How about Adam Schiff for president?

1. If I weren't already married......😍

[RDANGELO]

2. He seems to be content as head of the intelligence committee,

and being the one who is going to nail Trump.

[Brainstormy]

3. I really like him, but

just don't think he's got enough fighting spirit for the nastiness. I don't think he can go toe to toe like someone like Elizabeth Warren. And I'm NOT suggesting she be the candidate. Just saying it will take someone nimble-witted and very scrappy.

[whathehell]

28. I agree..

We need someone a little more feisty.

[LAS14]

4. That thought has crossed my mind about once ever couple of weeks. nt

[DonViejo]

5. Adam Schiff must have been on TV today...

and impressed someone.

[phylny]

23. He's been on TV on and off for the past two years.

I'm continually impressed, whenever he speaks.

[ananda]

6. He's my first choice, along with Beto!!!

[mucifer]

7. I think he's gonna be a little busy for a while .

I'd sure vote for him. But, I think he is currently needed destroying trump via live televised hearings.



Besides, he's young enough to run in 4 or 8 years. He's 58.

[dchill]

17. Yep. He's going to be a little too busy.

[mucifer]

19. He's an experienced prosecutor. I'm happy to watch him prosecute

[dchill]

20. It will be my pleasure as well.

8. Klobuchar-Schiff ticket

9. He has an intellectual charisma, which I love. But theres that x-factor kind of charisma...

...and he doesn't have that as far as I've seen.

I'm a huge fan of the guy. I always watch clips of his interviews any chance I get. I just don't know if he is the right guy the run against Trump. (though if Trump doesn't run for a second term, he could beat the shit out of someone like Pence with no problem).

[VOX]

10. He's a good man, with a loyal and honest heart. It's sad that's not enough these days.

I have enormous respect for Adam Schiff, he's been a tireless public servant. But as a presidential candidate, his methodical and modest style wouldn't defeat the raging, big-money right-wing machine.

Democrats have so many Republican-planted obstacles to overcome (Electoral College, voter suppression, gerrymandering, right-wing attack-media, etc.) that a Democratic candidate will need to have a broad appeal, like Barack Obama had, to breach all those walls.

But Schiff would be ideal in a cabinet post.

[watoos]

21. I don't know about that.

Remember, "speak softly but carry a big stick?"

Nancy Pelosi is soft spoken also but is a bulldog getting things done.

Schiff would make a fine president, but I do like him better heading the intelligence committee right now.

[kacekwl]

11. Yes please.

My pick .

[mucifer]

14. Do you have any idea of Mueller's political positions? He has always been a republican.

I am hopeful that he can help take down trump and his cabal. But, I have no clue if he is pro NRA or pro voter disenfranchisement or anti LGBT. Do you have any idea about any of this?

We know he has taken down crime bosses. I don't think we know much about his political positions other than that he has always been a republican. What republicans stand for makes me sick.

[EricMaundry]

13. We have a wealth of talented people

Schiff is one of them.

[sellitman]

15. Harris-Schiff works for me.

I like it!

[Garrett78]

16. Can't have 2 Californians. Harris for POTUS, Schiff for Speaker after Pelosi.

[Kaleva]

18. I think he'd be better as Speaker someday,

[Tom Rinaldo]

29. He gets talked about by pundits as a possible next Democratic Speaker - AFTER Nancy steps down n/t

22. Unfortunately the citizenry are blinded by a pretty, shiny object.

So we need someone who can qualify in that arena, but who is also young(ish), smart, comfortable in front of the camera, telegenic, and willing to go to the mat with the TRUTH, against the lies that are going to be thrown at them. No hemming, hawing or hedging in an effort to seem "fair and balanced", which has been redefined (read perverted) by Faux News.

I believe we will have a few of those possible candidates to choose from, both for the pres and vp slots, hopefully setting up a continuance of democratic presidents.

Adam is great, and will hopefully be instrumental in bringing down turdface, but as a presidential candidate, he is too calm and collected, which sometimes comes across as having too little fire and passion. We need someone that can express some of the anger that all of US are feeling.

I, personally, am in no need of a compromising, reach across the aisle politician.

To compromise means to give up ground. We have already given up so much ground that we have lost our identity as a party.

Republicans have kept moving so far to the right that being in the center means that we must compromise on everything that defines us, equality, fairness, choice, church as state, just to name a few.

They want to rid us of all immigrants. They want control over a woman's body and the choices she makes with it. They want to reverse all lgbtq advances. They would GLADLY install a christian version of sharia law.

All of those "compromises" are unacceptable.

[Vinca]

24. I would prefer him as Attorney General.

[peekaloo]

27. Seconded

play to his strengths

[elocs]

25. Do we really need every Democrat who does something good to run for president?

Because we need good people in the House and Senate, as governors, and in lots of other places as well.

[Botany]

26. Yes

n/t

[MoonRiver]

30. I like him, and do think he could take on Chump.

He'd do it more with intellect than insults, though. But, I believe he wants to concentrate on exposing this evil cabal for what it is. Running for president is like 3 full time jobs, and my feeling is he won't give up his chance to help bring Chump to justice.

[democratisphere]

31. ADAM SCHIFF is the exact opposite of drumpf.

ADAM SCHIFF would be a great POTUS!
