(3,425 posts)I believe that Clinton is our only hope for the White House. I did think of one such person, Russ Feingold. I believe he is thinking of running for senate in his own state but that could change.
Regardless of all the negatives liberals find in her, she would at least protect women's control of their own bodies and I am pretty sure she would support Obamacare, medicare and social security. That is more than any current repug candidate would offer.
The only other candidates to do that would be Bernie Sanders. who is thinking of running as an Independent. which would not be good if it split the democratic vote. My personal favorite is Howard Dean but that is a non starter. I really believe that Elizabeth Warren is not going to run and what I thought was a lighthearted poem about it got me into a lot of trouble so I will just say that I believe she really does not want to run.
Alan Grayson would make the contest very interesting and quite entertaining but I do not think he will run nor do I think he could run, but I would vote for him if he got the nomination. Does anyone one else have any suggestions of viable candidates that we could get behind if we do not think it should be Hiliary.
