34. Hillary, Kerry, or Biden would have a good chance.

If any are willing I don't see why they shouldn't. Sanders should absolutely not be permitted to get anywhere near the DNC. If he wants to run he can run as an Independent which is basically what he ran as last time. The bizarre branding arrangement was catastrophic and whatever means necessary to disallow it should be put in place forthwith.

p.s. Booker or Harris as VP would give them national exposure and a platform to launch from in 2020 whether the ticket wins or not, but I think the odds are at least even that it would.

The "given the presidency by default" clause in the constitution is so often overlooked. hughee99 Sep 2017 #36

Clearly our constitution has no mechanism for dealing with this situation. ecstatic Sep 2017 #37

It does have a mechanism for dealing with this situation, impeachment. hughee99 Sep 2017 #38

how would impeachment cover it when the VP, speaker, etc. are all in on the crime? nt ecstatic Sep 2017 #40

Can't any of them be impeached? Also, we're quite a ways away from showing everyone in the line of hughee99 Sep 2017 #41
