even if he wins the georgia seat, running for president a year or so after is a little early.
Trump had zero political experience, sure enough but it is obvious that we democrats are held to a higher standard.

Personally, I want somebody who had a few years in congress or as a governor. They are much more likely to be effective when they do get elected. Ossof may run for senate in 2020 however. That would be great and place him for running for president the cycle after that.
