Who will be the Democratic candidate in the US presidential election of 2020?
A good American friend of mine – a Democrat – believes that Donald Trump is best opposed by Bernie Sanders in the US presidential election of 2020. I ventured to suggest to him that Trump will not be the Republican candidate and Sanders will not be the Democrat candidate. So will be standing for the two parties?
I think that the Republican candidate could well be Mike Pence following the resignation of Trump when his Vice-President automatically takes over the top job and the GOP decides to stick with the new man in the White House as its candidate.
Who will be the Democratic candidate? I really have no idea. It’s just too soon to say. But I really don’t think it will be Bernie.
Currently seven have declared that they are seeking the candidacy and at least 23 others have been mooted for the position. Who are these 30 hopefuls? Check them out here.
