Who would you pick to be President?

Not to mention the fact that Senator Warren is too old and Bernie is far too old.

Time to go younger.

Pete Buttigieg Smarter and more Long vision than any other politician.
Needs to step up and show a more public face. Action Now!

Jake Sullivan. His foreign policy experience is excellent, and he can be a very good president supported by a strong cabinet.

Who is Jake Sullivan though? Give us a 2 line bio or something.

Amy Klobuchar with Ari Melber as VP. Or visa/versa.

I’m not an American but I would choose Henry Cuellar. The only politician I can find who supports my conservative view on things like abortion but also favors social justice. If someone can point me to someone else who is also in favor of gun control I would be liable to change my mind

Because it would make all the GQPers freak I would have to go with George Soros.

Seriously, probably Elizabeth Warren.

many of us would view that as a paradox

Consider biblical teaching, is it a paradox to to believe “Thou shalt not kill” applies to shooting people with a gun and killing unborn children. Or that God hate homosexuality (Rom 1:26-27) but wants us to care for the needy (Jam 2:14-17)

I can respect that point of view, even if I don’t agree with it. At least it is consistent.

Justin Amash.

Want to explain at all who that is? If the person is not famous, please don’t just post a name.

Who would I pick to be President right now? Or who would I pick to become President on January 20, 2025?

Big difference. If I’m picking for right now, I’m staying with Biden. Not only do I think he’s doing about as good a job as one can do, given where we are as a nation, but he’s got a better shot than anyone who’d take over at this point of winning in 2024, IMHO.

(I’m assuming my pick only applies to the term I pick them for, and doesn’t carry through the next election.)

If I’m picking someone who would magically take office on 1/20/25, I’d probably go with Whitmer. She’d be the incumbent in 2028, and have a good chance of holding onto the White House for another 4 years.

I grew up just outside of Alexandria, but much as I still love that town, I think it would make a lousy President.

I’m not picky about “rules”. Specifying what you mean, as you did, is fine me. More information is better.

If I could bring someone back from the dead to be president, my pick is Carl Sagan. Climate change would be a top priority (as it should be). Space exploration would also be high on the list. Science in general would be at the forefront. He was also a great humanitarian, and one of the best communicators we’ve ever had.

Dolly Parton for VP.

I’d vote for the guy who wrote that article Abdul El Sayed

But I’m happy with Biden

Somebody dead. I’d have to go with (Mr.) Fred Rogers. He is legit one of the best humans of the modern era. Carl Sagan is pretty great too. Maybe they can be co-presidents.

Come to think of it, if we get to pick dead people, Jim Morrison sounds like as good a choice as any.

Yeah, but I wouldn’t wish the job on him. Same for Dolly.
