Just one note to all those going, but, but if you do not vote for the nominee...
folks, the Primaries are at least six months from now. We do not know who is running YET. We have a slew of POSSIBLE candidates
Hillary Clinton. ...
Joe Biden. ...
Andrew Cuomo. ...
Beau Biden. ...
Martin O'Malley. ...
Deval Patrick. ...
Kirsten Gillibrand. ...
Cory Booker.
Mind you, NONE of them has declared, And this list is all but complete.
I have been covering races since 2010. I know that primaries are exciting, and that they are always surprising. So really, I am not advocating for any of these candidates. I know a few of them by name. I know a couple by policy ( and don't particularly care for them), but serious, the process has not even started.
If you want to advocate for one of the people on this list, by all means. But threatening people or talking of inevitable candidates is a poison to whatever remains of democracy.

5. Six or eighteen months from now?
The Iowa caucuses and New Hampshire primaries traditionally kicked things off, and are tentatively scheduled for January, 2016. Is there a primary scheduled in 2015 I don't know about ?

Suffice it to say, you are thinking of the current calendar which is error. Yup, through intense astronomical observations, nads realized that the calendar has crossed the Rubicon and corrected it. Much the same as she did with measurements when she switched to the nadinmetric system.

gNads left Fauxcahontas off the list. Beau Biden? Is she just throwing out names she has heard of?

For the record, I’m once again thinking of seeking the demonRatTick nomination.
Let’s look at a comparison between me and the current occupant of the office:
Me: Doesn't know what’s going on until I see it on the news.
BO: Doesn't know what’s going on until he sees it on the news.
Me: What goes on is not my fault.
BO: What goes on is not his fault.
Me: Views the DUmp with disdain but recognizes them as votes.
BO: Views the DUmp with disdain but recognizes them as votes.
Me: Does not have experience successfully leading a country.
BO: Does not have experience successfully leading a country.
Me: Loves vacations (though I can’t afford to take one)
BO: Loves vacations (and proves it by taking them all the time)
Me. Biracial (red Irish Setter / blue American pigeon)
BO: Biracial (white American / black Kenyan)
Me: Likes spending money.
BO: Likes spending money (especially everyone else's)
Me: Likes dogs especially little ones.
BO: Likes dogs especially grilled ones.

Much the same as she did with measurements when she switched to the nadinmetric system.
It's not six months even under the nadinmetric system (which debuted with five feet of hailstones covering Mexico City).
In nadinmetrics (which is related to dianetics), there are one hundred seconds per minute, one hundred minutes per hour, ten hours per day, ten days per month, and ten months per year.
Since Republican-caused global warming has eliminated seasons, the system works perfectly.
It's an elegant system taught in enlightened school systems in the shithole south of Texas.
It's so logical when everything is a multiple of ten.
Only stupid Americans resist adoption of nadinmetrics.

gNads the Incomprehensible
I have been covering races since 2010.
So, you have "covered"* exactly one Presidential primary, for the East County Pennysaver.
One.
*Using the word "covered" advisedly, as there is no evidence gNads has ever left her living room to "report" on anything but Dumpster fires, random old people in the city plaza, and car shows.

Move on over L. Ron Hubbard. nadin is coming through !

No Schweitzer or Warren? Bernie Sanders, or a token appearance by Kucinich or Grayson?

14. 6 months is correct. For the 2008 Democratic Primary cycle, the 8 major candidates all announced
in the three months between the November 2006 midterm and December 2007. This is June. 6 months from now is the dank heart of the roll out season. In the US.
How can you not know that?
Is this a joke? I feel like I am off my game here...

3. I am just giving you a list of possible candidates
my informed opinion, I do not like Cuomo, and I think his chances are not very good, but that is at this point... I will give the process a chance. (And he is just a possible, bandied about, who has yet to declare)
Informed opinion? I am going to need that defined Nads.

6. I know, but people forget that the city council
And board of education serves as a training ground, and is essential.
City council run is training ground for a presidential run? is THAT her "informed opinion" defined?
-
gNads left Fauxcahontas off the list.
Rather surprising.
Beau Biden? Is she just throwing out names she has heard of?
Yup.
my informed opinion
:-) Go with that, blob. You bet.
-
my informed opinion
Entirely copy-and-paste.
Kirsten Gillibrand?
Martin O'Malley?
Does anyone believe nadin could spell those names?
