If you could vote ANYONE in the party instead of the party itself, who would you vote?

[pablo2752 106]

From foreigner's perspective, the constant nuclear head bust between the two parties has become increasingly insane and counter-intuitive, with much acceleration in last a few months.  Don't even need to talk about insane identity politic. I am from Korea where partisan fight can be bad, but not to this extent, ever. I lean left for the most part except a couple main stream left points such as affirmative action, "forgiving" EWI immigrants (much like Ronald Reagan fashion, ironic right?),  increasing tax for the rich ( I believe in higher transparency and stronger audit), expanding welfare expense(I think re-structuring is more important), but I am willing to make compromise as long as a candidate supports pragmatic bipartisan policies, decent moral/ethic values,  If I could vote  - meaning I would be a citizen, which I am not - I would vote for any one of John Kasich, Elizabeth Warren, Bernir Sanders, Andrew Yang,  Bill Weld.

I could add Daniel Cameron or Nikki Haley as well.

I don't know much about Daniel CAmeron because he hasn't been there for a long time, but yes, Nikki Haley sounds like a good gal.

Haley is OK, but also part of the "establishment."

Also crossed my mind, but not sure she's ready yet.

This was one option too but there's too many unknowns about where she spends her time politically. I've seen some possible connections to Antifa, which is a concern, so things like this I'd alleviate after she showed me she was serious by getting a running mate (same thing goes with anyone else, I've gone to choice #2 before because of the lack of running mate and not looking serious). There was a time where Sinema was on my radar, but her acquiescing to the party during the Trump era and impeachment ruined that.

 

Beyond that, I'd say Devin Nunes. Unfortunately Ron Paul isn't running anymore, neither is Dennis Kucinich, and many of the people I'd vote for aren't politicians.

Good choice.
