Adam Schiff - A STAR IS BORN

haymarket said:
Have been watching the first 80 minutes of the hearings this morning and it is obvious that California Representative Adam Schiff is hitting the ball over the fence with every opportunity.

A star is born right before our eyes.

For those who claim there are no younger Democrats to take leadership of this party and run in 2020 - that opinion needs to be revised.

If Schiff keeps this up - carefully laying out all the dots and then connecting them in a rational and calm manner - he is going to be one of names people talk about as a 2020 Presidential candidate.

His qualifications are meaningless, the only thing that matters is if he fits the identity that the DNC wants for a candidate. They will decide who the Dem. candidate is and the illusion of the Dem. electorate having a voice in the decision will continue to be spread.

What if the candidate is a completely negative person who denigrates people

Then he's a bad person with strong charisma. You know, I am actually aware that better human beings can have less charisma. My only observation, which is mine and mine alone, is that those with the greater charisma win elections. This has been my experience since I became "politically aware."

Just...cool, that's all. Point is, if he's not cool, he shouldn't be a Presidential hopeful. I assume that's what you were referring to in this thread.

after tRump, i suspect the citizenry will be looking for someone who acts presidential. Schiff appears to possess such gravitas

In Presidential elections charisma comes first, then all the other irrelevant nonsense (experience, intelligence, principles, etc.). In other words, "cool" is the first door you must walk through before you can open the following doors.

In my life time, I have never known the lesser charismatic candidate to win a Presidential election.
