That brings the Dem field to what, 498 candidates?
Booker scares me. A LOT!
I wonder if he'll ask his imaginary friend, 'T-Bone,' to be his running mate?
He's a liar.
He's very far left.
He's a bigger self-promoter than even Kamala and even Trump, for that matter
He's perpetually angry. VERY angry.
He will stop at nothing to get his way.
Did you watch this guy during the Kavanaugh hearings? YIKES!
I’m excited by Cory Booker’s announcement. I think Dems have a strong bench and I welcome a large field to the race.
I hope (and frankly, expect), the eventual nominee pulls the best from all of these folks into her or his platform
As long as he’s not in jail
Don't tell me you actually believe crimes were committed? If there was anything they could pin on Trump it would have already happened. This is nothing, but a glorified fishing mission that is praying for a perp walk of anyone that can loosely associate to Trump. They would March his shoe shiner out there if they could catch him up in something.
The only crimes came from the interrogation process.
As far as being nice, was he nice to Kavanaugh??

Free health care, free college, free "living wage".
The vast majority of America right now are people who have paid taxes, their entire lives, paid into social security that might not be there when they need it, paid into a 401K that didn't deliver.
There will be a segment of society, that's like "Cool, free shit, I'm in". But there's a bigger portion going, "No way, nothing is free - you're gonna take MORE from me so some slacker gets a free ride - Not on my watch".
Let's let the left try to outdo each other, promising things they can't deliver. It will be like watching a shark eat its own tail.

In communism Viva Spartaco, Spartaco a Rosarno: graffiti connecting Spartaco with 2010 Rosarno riots between locals and migrant farm workers
In modern times, Spartacus became an icon for communists and socialists. Karl Marx listed Spartacus as one of his heroes and described him as "the most splendid fellow in the whole of ancient history" and a "great general (though no Garibaldi), noble character, real representative of the ancient proletariat".[51] Spartacus has been a great inspiration to left-wing revolutionaries, most notably the German Spartacus League (1915–18), a forerunner of the Communist Party of Germany.[52] A January 1919 uprising by communists in Germany was called the Spartacist uprising.[49] Spartacus Books, one of the longest running collectively-run leftist bookstores in North America, is also named in his honour.
Barnum and Bailey have nothing on the upcoming Circus...I'm stocking up on the popcorn, now!
Biden will be 78 a few days after it.
They're too old.
Their VPs would end up getting the job and no one wants to vote for a VP.
"Rhodes scholar. Definitely a smart man even if you don't agree with him."
Unfortunately, being smart often has little to do with having common sense, respect for others, humility, nor workable solutions.
See 'Cory Booker' as an example.
(The writer's commentary here is priceless!)
"Cory Booker Wants To Tell You How To Eat, FYI
February 13, 2019
Hannah Bleau
Just what I want: Presidential candidates lecturing me on my dietary choices. For those who don’t know, Cory Booker is a vegan. He became a vegetarian in 1992 and went full vegan in 2014.
For the record, I have no problem with vegans. You eat what you want with no lectures, and I’ll eat what I want with no lectures. I think it’s kind of a hassle to go full vegan, and honestly there’s no vegan substitute for pulled pork nachos, so I’m out forever. I’ll try vegan things, but no. Lifestyle-wise, I’m out. I don’t want to make my life more complicated for no reason, and it wouldn’t make me feel like a “better person,” thanks bye.
Like I said. I’m good without the lectures. NO LECTURES CORY. That’s my rule. He just broke it.
Cory is clearly one of those vegans who believes he’s morally superior. Those are the worst kind.
He thinks everyone should go vegan, because the world can’t sustain meat-eaters.
Via the Daily Caller:
“You see the planet earth moving towards what is the Standard American Diet,” he told VegNews. “We’ve seen this massive increase in consumption of meat produced by the industrial animal agriculture industry.”
“The tragic reality is this planet simply can’t sustain billions of people consuming industrially produced animal agriculture because of environmental impact. It’s just not possible, as China, as Africa move toward consuming meat the same way America does because we just don’t have enough land.”
If it sounds like Booker is trying to crawl all up in your kitchen, it’s because he’s trying to crawl all up in your kitchen.
In addition to convincing the masses to give up meat, Booker has other legislative goals that would interfere with America’s eating habits.
“Legislatively, I want to continue to be a part of a movement of folk who are fighting against corporate interests that are undermining the public good and the public welfare,” he said
See? That’s what power-hungry leftists always do. They tread on your rights but do so under tender phrases like the “public good” and “public welfare.”
BTW– Booker also has a problem with too many pigs in barns. He said it “is harmful and violates our collective values as a country.”
Well, I think murdering babies in the womb is harmful and violates our collective values as a country, so how about we start there?
Crawl out of my kitchen, Spartacus.
You are NOT invited to dinner. Get your dairy-less hands off my nuggets."
