.We’ve categorized the possible Democratic presidential candidates into six groups: The Senators list carries Kamala Harris and Bernie Sanders. The House Members include Tulsi Gabbard, Joe Kennedy and Beto O’Rourke. The Governors list is anchored by Andrew Cuomo, Deval Patrick. The Obama Alums include Joe Biden, Eric Holder and others as potential 2020 presidential candidates. Finally, The Outsiders like Michael Avenatti and Oprah could reshape the road to 2020.

  1. If G-d forbid Eric Holder ever becomes President, there will be race riots on the streets of America. Lawlessness will rule the day. The police will be completely handcuffed, except when arresting whites. The Thought Police will reign supreme. US cities will burn. Eric is 100 times worse than Obama.
