13. Sen. Booker looks like the one we've waited for -- on the Democratic national ticket in 2028.

Of course he'd be a great presidential contender, but even better, Sen Booker would be a great VP on the ticket because he would preside over the Senate with people who will have known and respected him.

Moreover, how could Cory not bring Republican voters on board in 2028 when he has laid out everything the gentleman patriot John McCain said about the Senate.
