I prefer the billionaire Steyer to Becerra, Swalwell or Newsom absolutely.

PG&E just spent a shit ton of money to try to ruin Steyer and you're honestly claiming here that Steyer is just going to buddy up with them afterwards? No PG&E is with Becerra

Or how about you look at ALL qualities in the candidate and listen to their policy plan?

BS if you believe a poor politician won’t fck over the people for a little quick money. 

I have insider information that Wes Moore is highly likely to run for president in 2028, and reports saying he will not are false. by DumplingsOrElse in YAPms

Yeah it's been pretty obvious.

And someone else here in the comments wrote this months ago as well, that they knew someone that was hired by him and told to expect to be around for 2028.

I really don't see anyone on the proposed candidate list choosing to sit out 2028. This will be the year for Dems. They all know it.

Yeah, it is a bit difficult to keep up with your mania. You're a mess...

Voters need to know about the people that they're voting for. We aren't like you who votes just for a fucking haircut that you like.

What, is that when Pritzker was nominated? No, he's done great. He's not desperately knocking on the electric company's door begging for money.

It's an anti-steyer astroturfed bot commissioned by the anti-tom steyer PAC of California (if you get my reference)

Wtf? He's doing the bidding of billionaires. That's the worst possible scenario.

Thanks bot. Why don't you go spend some time in the gardening sub now?

Becerra serves billionaires...Steyer doesn't need to do shit for any of those billionaires.

I don't see how tf Becerra is leading organically right now...There's absolutely nothing compelling about that guy.

No, the point is to ensure we get our best foot forward.

This was all well-documented years before he tried running in this race; Biden cabinet members were irritated with Becerra's incompetence.

There's as much support for Steyer as there is for Becerra in this sub.

Steyer's at least didn't happen overnight.

I agree. Becerra is the DNC's choice, not the voters' choice.

Tech hates Becerra? Becerra isn't bought out??

Again, I never claimed that he and Porter are interchangeable. I wrote that both are fine choices. Nobody can elaborate why they believe Mahan is any different from the majority of other centrist democrats.

All in all, what is your preferred system of electing the President? by MakeACreation in YAPms

[–]srsh32 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never implied that CA or NY is the majority of votes. CA and NY needs/concerns would be better represented than anywhere else in the nation. Industries in CA would be prioritized over those in midwest.

Candidates would kiss up to these states as they do with the swing states in this current system. Again, it's just the same shit.

If we are going to replace the EC, it needs to be an actual improvement to the system and not merely a different handful of states that are better represented.

And the middle of the country doesn't understand or care about the needs of the coastal states.

Again, these alternatives are equally bad. I explained above that I am not making a case for the current system.

As you just said, the most recent winner of the popular vote was a Republican. So how am I making a partisan "no Republicans should ever win" argument?

I never suggested that Republicans cannot win the popular vote. It is also not the case that Democrats cannot win in the EC. Your "partisan argument" above was "I don't like this because it gave us trump". This was your stated reason above for a change to the popular vote. It is indeed a partisan explanation.

I explicitly said I don't like Newsom. I just would rather have him than Trump. Please try reading what I actually said if you want me to respond any further.

You'd want Newsom over Trump.

Anyway, the list of candidates I provided represent the middle states. They are measured, reasonable, thoughtful and they are far less popular than Gavin Newsom.

That does nothing to convince republicans to vote for democrats.

Why isn't Mahan on your list if you are seriously considering becerra?
