La Lioness Priyanka

(53,866 posts) Thu Dec 15, 2016, 11:41 AM Dec 2016

There are at least two women who i hope run in 2020 primaries [View all]

Kirsten Gillibrand and Kamala Harris.

I know that Amy Klobuchar is relatively conservative, but I hope she runs too.

And of course Tammy Duckworth.

Well I guess that's 4 women.

(i didn't say liz warren, because i suspect she will be too old. I could be wrong.)
