In reply to the discussion: The 2020 Democratic Presidential Ticket is likely to a Warren/Booker ticket. [View all]NurseJackie
(42,862 posts)57. Others here are being ugly. Your response was simply dismissive.
You are reacting (and commenting) as if the OP had attempted to present his/her personal belief as some sort of thoughtful analytical piece... clearly that's not the case.
And your analysis is lacking in every single area.
The OP is just stating an opinion. It's just idle speculation and making a prediction. It's difficult for me to see how anyone would view this as being analytical.
I take issue with this and don't think it's honest speculation.
But, perhaps I'm overlooking something. Why do you believe the OP is being dishonest? How so? It's clearly speculative, but how is it being dishonest?
42. This truly doesn't make any sense.
What's to misunderstand? The OP was very clear (in my opinion) in stating what he/she believed would unfold. Perhaps you disagree with the OP's prediction, but it's unfair of you to characterize it as "not making any sense" because, truthfully, it DOES make sense.
People here are understandably on-edge ... but I think it's unnecessary to continually strike out at people who mean no harm, or to be dismissive of someone's ideas and hopes. This was a totally harmless and "throw-away" OP that's more fluff than substance. I don't understand why people are treating it as more than it is, and reacting as though it has some hidden agenda that must be countermanded.

I agree, I love Elizabeth Warren as my senator, but I just don't see her as President.

Because no good can come from allowing ourselves a moment to dream and imagine, right?
