57. Not sure what you mean by "outshone." I guess I interpret that phrase as "attracting attention."

Certainly his interesting, and thus far unique personal history are worthy of media-gazing. Unfortunately, this is the same phenomenon that brought Obama and Trump to the forefront. We know one of those hasn’t worked out so well. The question is how well will he wear through the campaign. IMO Mayor Pete’s answers to questions reflect a depth of thought long missing from our politicians. However, I like the policy dense campaign of Warren because I think we need concrete proposals to undo the damage inflicted by the GOP. I hope to hear more details from all candidates soon.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Undecided
