Harry Reid: Dems 2020 field looks like an 'old folks home'

Outgoing Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid says the potential 2020 Democratic presidential field resembles an "old folks home," according to a new report.

In the aftermath of President-elect Trump's victory and recent chatter that Vice President Biden could launch a 2020 campaign for the Democratic nomination, the Nevada Democrat remarked that the field of prospective candidates in four year's time looks like an "old folks home." The soon-to-be former senator was referring to Biden, Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders and Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren, all of whom could launch campaigns.

Finally the Dems are beginning to see a little reality. I have been saying for years that the Democrat Party is the party of old, rich, White People. And it is. Glad to see Dingy is finally onboard.


BTW, many Black/Hispanic organizations are starting to say the same thing. That is, 'Why should we work for all these rich old White people?'


(And anyone who fires back that blond-hair, blue eyes, Elizabeth Warren isn't White, gets a smack in the mouth just for being too stupid to live)

Harry Reid sees it, not necessarily the party, though.

Of course he sees it. He caused it. Spent a lot of years putting down challenges to his authority - result is no one with credibility being left to run.

Absolutely.


The Democrats have run such a hard-tight incestuous organization for so long, now all they have are inbred 'old-boys'. And their deeply corrupt selection process, along with gerrymandering and voter fraud efforts have ensured that the same people get elected and re-elected for a hundred years.


With Democrats, it is not about elections or about 'the people'. It is always about maintaining power at all costs.


No one is 'allowed' to even run as a Democrat unless they kiss the rings and have the blessing of the old boy establishment. They have to be in lock-step with the powers that be, or they won't even get started. This has essentially locked out any 'new blood' for several decades. And now we are seeing the result of this xenophobic policy.
