Etiquette



DP Etiquette

First rule: Don't be a jackass.

Other rules: Do not attack or insult people you disagree with. Engage with facts, logic and beliefs. Out of respect for others, please provide some sources for the facts and truths you rely on if you are asked for that. If emotion is getting out of hand, get it back in hand. To limit dehumanizing people, don't call people or whole groups of people disrespectful names, e.g., stupid, dumb or liar. Insulting people is counterproductive to rational discussion. Insult makes people angry and defensive. All points of view are welcome, right, center, left and elsewhere. Just disagree, but don't be belligerent or reject inconvenient facts, truths or defensible reasoning.

Let’s start thinking ahead (some two years from now)...

 

The race for the 2028 President of the United States will begin in earnest, in that long, long, long, (did I say long?) journey toward the next presidential election.

Who do you see on the horizon for the Democrats:

  • Newsome?

  • Jefferies?

  • Schiff?

  • Fedderman?

  • A Gore redux? (He is an avid environmentalist–but too old? BTW, he is about 6-wks older than me.)

  • Would Kamala be so bold? (Once burned, twice shy?)

  • Is Hillary even a remote possibility? (Her enemies list is looong.)

  • Is Buttigieg a (let’s call it) “viable” candidate? (News flash–that’s not remotely possible.) (see CN)

  • Bernie? (fugedabadit)

  • Other?

Who do you expect to see in the “lineup” running for the Dem nomination?  Make your predictions.  Give some explanations if you can.
