35. She may not want a second term

She would be 73 at that time.

If she won't step aside, maybe de Blasio could be her running-mate in 2020, and then we could see a de Blasio / Warren or de Blasio / Davis ticket in 2024 (for example, not that those are the only possible progressive choices by then.)

My point is that the nation is changing. The people who think like Reagan's Klan are dying off. We are headed for a titanic clash between a truly fair and progressive society versus becoming virtual slaves of the 0.1%. Every year this clash will become more and more apparent. We need to be setting our sights on how we get real progressives in charge.

This is going to happen. The 0.1% have so corrupted the very essence of capitalism that it is going to come crashing down. I just hope I live long enough to see us turn this corner. I though I saw that when we elected Obama, but I was wrong, or at least 12 years premature.

I'm planning to be alive in 2024, so don't let me down on this one.
