A baby boomer is our current President. Chances are, if the economy continues to grow, he will serve two terms. Logically in 2024, Mike Pence would run. So who would the Democrats run in 2020 and 2024? The Democrats are a party in flux–half of them are openly embracing socialism and half of them are trying to bring their party more into the mainstream of America.<\/p>\n

The Hill<\/a> posted an article recently about the Democrat field of candidates for President in 2020.<\/p>\n

The article reports:<\/p>\n

Former Vice President Joe Biden<\/a><\/span> and Sen. Bernie Sanders<\/a><\/span> (I-Vt.) are the most popular potential 2020 Democratic presidential candidates, according to\u00a0a new American Barometer poll.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

The poll,\u00a0which is a joint project of Hill.TV<\/a> and the HarrisX polling company, showed Biden with a 50 percent\u00a0favorable\u00a0rating, while Sanders\u00a0trailed with a 48 percent\u00a0favorable rating.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Only 31 percent of those polled said they viewed the former vice president unfavorably.\u00a0A\u00a0third of respondents\u00a0said they viewed Sanders unfavorably.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

The survey comes as speculation swirls around a slew of potential Democratic contenders, including Sens. Kirsten Gillibrand<\/a><\/span> (N.Y.), Kamala Harris<\/a><\/span> (Calif.), Elizabeth Warren<\/a><\/span> (Mass.) and Cory Booker<\/a><\/span> (N.J.), who could challenge President Trump<\/a><\/span> in 2020.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Warren held the highest\u00a0favorable\u00a0rating among Democratic senators listed in the survey, with 33 percent of those polled\u00a0saying they held a favorable view of the senator.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The poll showed Gillibrand\u00a0holding a 20 percent\u00a0favorable rating, while 21 percent of respondents said they\u00a0have a favorable view of Harris, and 23 percent said the same for Booker. \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Name recognition\u00a0remains an obstacle for many Democratic contenders.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Thirty-four percent of respondents said they had never heard of Gillibrand, while 36 percent said the same for Harris. Thirty-two percent of respondents had not heard of Booker.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Only 4 percent of those polled said they had never heard of Biden\u00a0or Sanders.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

I realize that you have to be 35 to be President, but you don’t have to be over 60! Bernie Sanders is 76, and Joe Biden is 75. They are leading in the polls. Elizabeth Warren is 69. The younger contenders are Kirsten Gillibrand is 51, Kamala Harris is 53, and Cory Booker at 49 is the youngest of the group.<\/p>\n

Where are the millenniums in either party?<\/p>\n

In November 2017, Quorum<\/a> posted the following chart about the House of Representatives:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>This is the Senate:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Where are our young political leaders?<\/p>\n
