2020 Vision for the Democrats

If the Democrats have any horse sense at all, they will ignore all the voices that call for populist reform of the Party, especially of the Presidential nominating process.

Instead of decreasing the power of the superdelegates, they should increase it, so that they can nominate this guy in 2020.* That's probably the only way it will happen.

He's the good kind of white male, and the Davos crowd (the real caucus of the party) loves him. Hickenlooper is a governor of state that has actually been trending blue lately, and which went for Clinton over Trump by a margin that was greater than the polling projected. He would represent a "sane" restoration of the pro-globalist Establishment. His environmental record is not one that makes the enviros jump for joy, especially in regard to the all-important issue of fracking, but he would sign any global Climate Change agreement in a heartbeat.
