My Skill Based Immigration System

One of the biggest arguments made when someone brings up the idea of how to reform immigration is that we need to move to a "skill based system." Of course, what skills are always left up in the air. Mind you, our fastest periods of economic growth happened when the only skill needed was the ability to show up. 

However, I'm willing to compromise. Here's what I believe, if you can prove you are smarter than the average anti-immigration activist, you are allowed in.

This would be a complex process involving SAT scores, ACT scores, reading level, and IQ, but the idea is simple in of itself. Not only that but the pro-immigration people such as myself won't have to deal with this non-sense system.

The Triple 9 Society--a group you need an IQ in the top 0.1% of the population to join--did a survey of its members. Unsurprisingly, they were very pro-immigration because they understood it lowers prices and leads to a larger economy.

Not only that, but it makes sure the people on the anti-immigration side have to be intelligent. Trump may "love the poorly educated," but those who support skill-based immigration shouldn't.  

Or we could just allow immigrants to come into this country as long as they aren't hurting anyone, whichever is easier.

The Real MLK

In honor of Martin Luther King day, Kamala Harris officially announced her 2020 candidacy. So does she pass the MLK test? God no! Tulsi Gabbard and Kristen Gillibrand both have more support for MLK in one finger than Harris does in her whole body. 

As California Attorney General, a role she only got by 0.8% by the way, she refused to prosecute Steve Mnuchin despite him illegally foreclosing on the houses of the elderly. What was the content of Mnuchin's character? 

King was against the War in Vietnam. I doubt he would approve of attacking Syria or support a preemptive strike on North Korea. Kamala Harris however, does support both of those. 

Harris is a supporter of gun control. King owned a gun and used it for self-defensive. 

If Kamala wants to be the second MLK, she is not doing a very good job.

Donald's Friend George

I've talked to people who were in Alabama when George Wallace was governor. George Wallace--the man most famous for blocking the door of a school to keep black people from coming in--became a hero among the racists all over the country, especially in the state he was elected to.

People would often ask "What has he done for you?" The woman with untreated diabetes, the parent of a kid who couldn't read, and the man who comes home dirty and is slowly getting a broken back would always have the same answer. "He's keeping down the black people."

I see in about 50 years many of us will see this government shutdown and the wall in a very similar way. Here's a question: What were the economic policies of Geroge Wallace? Nobody Remembers, he just wanted to be seen as a hero for fighting against the civil rights movement.

Donald is currently trying to turn himself into a hero, one who stands up to the elites and does what is best for the American people. This will not work. The world is only getting more globalized. 

The wall will not work. Illegal immigration has been at a net zero since 2007. We live in a world that is 3-D. Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R-TX) even admitted that it is only going to cover less than 15% of the Mexican-American border. Of course, this will be why we need an even larger wall. And so on and so on until we put a dome over the entire United States. 

Why do you think he's doing it now? Going back to Dan, he recently said if Republicans had the house, there would be a wall. Even though they had the House for 2 years (8 if you count the Obama era), and we still don't have the wall.

I just can't wait for 2020 campaign ads. Trump supporters will make sure to say "He's keeping down the Mexicans."

How Diverse Is Congress?

This week, the entire media fawned over just how diverse the new Congress is. "The future is female," "the future is black," "the future is LGBT," "the future is Muslum." 

But let's actually break it down: Right now we have 2 Muslims, Rep. Omar and Rep. Tlaib (About 0.4% in Congress), yet we have almost 3 million in the United States (almost 1%). We finally have our first bisexual senator (Senator Sinema), yet about 1/3 of American young people identify as bisexual. So 1% of the Senate is bisexual and represent 33% of the population. 

But let's not forget this, all of these new representatives still support the same 1%. It doesn't matter if they're Female, LGBT, Black, Asain, Mexican, or the good old fashion White Straight Christian Man. 60% of all Senators are millionaires, as are 40% of representatives. This is twice what is required to be in the top 1%. 

So why do they want us to focus on this? For the same reason they wanted us to focus on how Tlaib said she would impeach "the motherfucker" Donald Trump. They want to keep us divided and focused on race, especially when they can make themselves look progressive as it happens. It's the media version of "I have a black friend," except that's not even what the conversation is about. 

Next week, I'll tell you the other main way they keep us divided.

2018 Roundup

Well, 2018 has come to an end. And with the government shutdown, Democrats taking the House, and much more, I say this year has been . . . something.

The government shutdown has been going on for 10 days. Luckily, Donald's government shutdown is so unpopular, he has to blame everyone but himself. A recent poll found that only half of all Americans surveyed blamed the man who was given a spending bill that could have stopped the shutdown and didn't sign it. Or, only half of all Americans blamed the person who caused the shutdown.

Of course, the shutdown was over Donald Trump wanting taxpayers to fund his wall. I would give Trump credit for following through on his campaign promises if he didn't also promise us that Mexico would pay for the wall. What happened to that? Oh, and if the promise wasn't really stupid. 

Going into 2020, things are only getting worse for Democrats. Elizebeth Warren announced her run unofficially today. I think she would be a positive influence on the race, even if she's only one-half correct that's still better than who else I'm seeing.

CNN did a segment today on how Bernie can't win because he's an old white man. Despite the fact that our current president is an old white man (the spray tan makes it hard to tell, I know). They also tried to call him a pervert, although when he's running against the grouper in chief, I don't really think that matters all that much. 

Seriously though, let's just all take a minute and be happy Beto O'Rourke won't be president. All the polls seem to say it will either be Joe Biden or Bernie Sanders. I like Biden, I think he was a very good Vice President under Obama and a pretty decent Senator, even if he came in just at the time when Democrats couldn't figure out how they should feel about race. Rather either of them will run is still up in the air, but important news is where the polls line up.

Of course, CNN is trying to make Kamla Harris 2020 a thing. It's not going to be a thing, but CNN really doesn't seem to care. They've put her as there most likely to be the nomination for two months in a row, despite no poll done by anyone that isn't CNN saying this. 

Of course, the only candidate who has has a snowball's chance in hell is Richard Ojeda. He's a good center-left candidate, but he's not bad. He believes in healthcare for all, universal education, and increased taxes on the rich.

So what will happen in 2019? Let's find out together.

Making The Economic Case For Mass Migration That Tucker Carlson Thinks Can't Be Made

"Good Evening and welcome to Tucker Carlson Tonight," said Tucker Carlson, host of Tucker Carlson Tonight. Sorry, I just found that funny.

Last week, Tucker Carlson made the point that no one ever makes an economic case for mass migration because one simply can't be made. Of course, this is wrong. How do I know this is wrong? Because it's actually a very easy case to make.

Most of the "economic" arguments against immigrants always come down to the zero-sum fallacy.

"They take our jobs," they say while saying "they don't work and drain off our welfare," somehow. These people really don't make much sense.

Here's the objective fact: Even an unskilled immigrant creates 1.2 jobs for the average native worker. This causes a larger economy meaning more immigrants can come in with more jobs for native workers following. 

So yes, Tucker. An economic case can be made in simply one paragraph. Congrats.

French Protesters, Nationalism, and People Being Wrong

Over the past week or so, France has been experiencing many protests. Many of them resulting from Macron's new carbon tax, a plan so simple that it's honestly surprising this is what caused people to take notice.

First off, the people of France protest all the time. That's actually one very cool thing about France, they engage in protests basically anytime a new policy they disagree with is proposed. An entire section of the movie Sicko is about just how common French protests are. So why is the media, specifically the right-wing media, only talking about this one? Because this is the only one of those protests they can use to make it look like the normally left-wing French are now supporters of Donnie.

Donald only has an approval rating of 10% in France. Meanwhile, French president Macron has the still awful, but better than Trump's, rating of 26%. That's also ignoring that the people of France were already given the choice of a Donald like candidate with Marie Le Pen last year, and she lost! Macron is done, just like he was during the campaign. 

Look, I hate Emmanuel Macron, a lot. I hate that fact that he's a former Rothschild banker, a neoliberal, very awkward with his ideology, and named his party after his own initials. Who does that?

However, it is also impossible to deny that these French protesters are also not the brightest people. For instance, their demands include tax cuts, France defaulting on its debt, and more public services. Ideas that so obviously contradict each other that I don't even feel I need to explain the problem.

Other proposals include the withdrawal from the UN and a decrease in immigration. Meaning this movement could also be called isolationist pretty easily, while the world is becoming increasingly global. Never before have I seen people actually ask to be left behind.

If this is the future of Europe, we better all start praying.

The Greatest Pro-Choice Ad Ever Made

Every time I go to write a column I always make sure to go to some of my "favorite" twitter accounts. People like Matt Walsh, Lila Rose, Live Action, and many more just to see what makes them angry (or you could say triggered) just to see how silly it is. Today I stumbled across a pro-choice ad that may just be the greatest case for abortion ever made. 

Matt Walsh called it the most disgusting pro-choice ad he'd ever seen, and other people said other things but I found that to be the funniest. I mean Live Action only called it "tone deaf." I mean come on Live Action! You guys compared abortion to slavery and the holocaust, and the best you got is "tone deaf." The ad has over 4,000 dislikes and less than 100 thumbs-ups. 

Watch it here.

The ad is simple: It shows clips of a baby moving around while lullaby music plays in the background. While this is going on words flash up on the screen. Those words are "she deserves to be loved," "she deserves to be wanted," and "she deserves to be a choice."

I love this ad for one reason: It cuts to the chase. None of this "we care about women and not kids" straw-man pro-lifers love using. Instead we get to see someone finally say "we care about kids more than you do, we just also understand reality better than you."

Unwanted children aren't always loved. This seems like common sense to anyone who isn't in the pro-life movement. Therefore, if you want children to always grow up in a household where they're loved, you must be pro-choice by definition. 

This also answers the one pro-life loaded question they love to phrase in a million different ways. I remember I once heard Dennis Prager ask if someone who is pro-choice would be okay with a homophobic woman aborting a child she knows will be gay. I answer yes. Why? Because homophobic parents of gay kids usually end of causing kids to have mental issues and -- a sad amount of the time -- they end up in the same place they would have if they were aborted with a large amount of suffering in the middle. 

So why are pro-lifers so angry at this ad? Because it hits them where it hurts. The only argument they've ever had is that they have the moral position and the people are seeing through it.

Gab Is Melting Down

For those who do not know, Gab is more or less the libertarian/right-wing/racist and antisemitic version of twitter. Am I being mean? Nope. It turns out the man who just shot up a synagogue this weekend was a user a Gab and posted regularly. 

Most Gab users are those who got kicked off of twitter for being racist. This guy seemed to be no exception. So naturally, many places including PayPal, GoDaddy, and much more cut all ties with Gab. Because of that the platform is more or less completely dead. The creator did not like. 

Andrew Torba, AKA Mr. Gab, is not pleased with how people have been covering and is having a complete meltdown on twitter. 

This includes saying Yahoo wants him dead for reporting on him and informing us that striking him down will just bring him back more powerful. The best of these is easily when he posted a Bible quote about killing brown Jews while trying to defend himself from claims of being racist and antisemitic. But all of this leads to one question: Where will the Gab man go when he's banned from twitter for being racist? I guess we'll never know.

10 Reasons To Not Vote Republican (The Midterm Special Part 4 Of 4)

Note: This is the fourth of four columns that will be released every Monday leading up to the 2018 midterm elections. 

As many of you know, Ben Shapiro spent the past month doing a 4 part special of Fox News about the midterm 2018 election. I figured it would be best for me to end my 4 part midterm special by responding to how he ended his 4 part midterm special.

Ben ended his series with 10 reasons you should vote Republican. So, being the partisan hack that I am, I figured I would take his reasons and explain why they're actually reasons you shouldn't vote Republican. Here you go.

1: The Courts

Donald Trump has appointed two people to the Supreme Court, Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh. Gorsuch, of course, is a corporate shill who supports companies being allowed to do basically whatever they want (from the party of Teddy). Meanwhile, Kavanaugh has been accused of sexual assault.

Even on the local level, things aren't much better. This includes putting radical catholic Amy Barrette and another individual who believes in ghost. This court has waged war against Unions, LGBT rights, and much more that should be held as important parts of liberty. 

2: The Investigation

Do you want to know what actually happened in the 2016 election? For that matter, do you want to know why so many conflicts of interest exist in this administration? Well, then you should not support Republicans considering they are against transparency in government and have even supported anonymous money in politics. 

3: Impeachment

This won't actually happen. It's just very funny they think it can happen. 

4: The Economy 
While I may not personally be an economist, here's what I know: Under the last 2 Republican presidents (both George Bush's) we hit the worst economic point since the great depression. Democrats, for all their faults, have not managed to create an economic downturn on that level since the great depression. Also, the president during the start of the great depression, Herbert Hoover, was a Republican.


5: Foreign Policy

Do you not like the idea of going to war with Iran, doing regime change in Venezuela, and toppling Assad? Then the Republican party may not be the party for you. 

6: Culture War

If Republicans win, the US will be in a very bad state. However, they'll make sure to have a reason for such. This is where the distraction known as the "culture war" comes in. You see, it's the fault of those queer people and not the fault of our bad economic policies. Can't wait for another federal marriage amendment. 

7: Attacks On Religious Liberty

The Muslum ban, that is all.

8: Twisting of Social Media

Jeff Sessions more or less wants social media to be nationalized. He wants them to not be able to enforce their own terms of service because it hurts them more, despite them being able to go on any number of right-wing websites and spew their pretend facts.

9: Media Complex

We live in a world where people call Sean Hannity the "shadow chief of staff", that is all.

10: Mob Rule

The mob is the Republican Party. Most Americans want single payer, more gun control, and no wars. Yet, Republicans make sure we never get them. They want the rule of orginazed money, which is just as dangerous as the rule of orginazed mob.

Make Sure Your Representatives Believe In Science (The Midterm Special Part 3 Of 4)

Note: This is the third of four columns that will be released every Monday leading up to the 2018 midterm elections.

This week, the United Nations released a report saying climate change will almost certainly destroy the world by 2030. Every government in the world recognizes Climate Change across the board, except the US. Every country also signed on to the Paris Climate Agreement, except the United States of America. 

In the Senate, 53 people deny the reality of Climate Change. Meanwhile, 232 Representatives in the House also deny this basic truth. Denying reality should be a strike one your out for being in politics. It's just that simple.  

October 8, 2018

Make Sure Your Representative Represents You (The Midterm Special Part 2 Of 4)

Note: This is the second of four columns that will be released every Monday leading up to the 2018 midterm elections.

A recent gallop pole found that independent senator Bernie Sanders is the only politician in the US to have an approval rating over 50%. Morning Consultant also found Bernie Sanders to be the most popular Senator in the country as of July 2018 with a 63% approval rating. 

Meanwhile, the least approved senator is Majority Leader Mitch McConnell with a disapproval rating of 56%. Others on that list include the moderate Republican Jeff Flake, the party line pusher Marco Rubio, and the infamous blue dog Joe Manchin.

What I find most interesting is that the most disliked Senator, isn't just the leader of one of the two political parties, but also the leader of the party with the most senate seats. Why is this? Because Americans don't elect representatives that actually represent them.  


McConnell won his 2014 election with 56.2% of the vote from the state of Kentucky. This is despite only 30% of Americans approving of his performance as a Senator. Of course the senate elections aren't federal so it shouldn't be 1 to 1 approval and votes, but the gap is clear.

Meanwhile, a liked senator like Sanders won in 2012 by a vote of 71%, and has an approval rating of 63%. It also seems that when a senator is more progressive the approval rating seems to be much more similar to the percent of people they were elected by. 

So make sure whoever your representative is actually represents you, stop having these really weird disparities like the ones that currently exist in the senate.  

October 1, 2018

Make Sure Your Representative Is Against Sexual Assault (The Midterm Special Part 1 Of 4)

Note: This is the first of four columns that will be released every Monday leading up to the 2018 midterm elections. 

On Sunday, Senator Lindsey Graham went on Face The Nation to talk about the FBI investigating Brett Kavanaugh. During that interview, he made it clear there is nothing the FBI could find that would make him change his mind on Kavanaugh. This was happening while Kavanaugh was under investigation for rape. 

Meanwhile, in the Senate, Jeff Flake has already said he would not let the FBI investigate if he were up for reelection in 2018. Jeff Flake, despite having his term up, decided to not run for reelection because of things like this. (Although he's almost certainly doing a presidential run in either 2020 or 2024) Linsey Graham will also not be up for reelection until 2020.

However, that doesn't mean the pro-sexual assault (or at least not anti-sexual assault) congressmen don't walk among us everywhere we go. 

Senator Ted Cruz, one of the least likable men in politics, for instance, voted against the reauthorization of the Violence Against Women Act. Why? Because the gays would also get protection under the new version. The horror.  

So before going to vote make sure the person representing you also doesn't think it's good to have sex with someone without permission.

Help Someone In A Hurricane? Go To Jail.

Recently, a brave individual decided to save pets that had been misplaced in the Carolina through Hurricane Florence. This person was arrested soon after.

Because that's what cops need to be keeping us safe from. Not the murders, bankers, robbers, companies that break tax laws, all of that can wait. The real issue in this world is someone picking up a stray dog and returning it to the owner. How could they? What a monster! 

This is what happens when you have to many laws on the books. The average person commits 3 felonies a day without even knowing it due to how many we have. 1% of the population is in prison due to mostly smoking a plant we've decided shouldn't even be illegal and that was only made illegal because being black can't be. We have the largest prison population in the entire world, and yet we're still locking people up over small things like this. 

In the words of a certain president "sad!"

No Michael: Here's All Of The Evidence Against Brett Kavanaugh

Recently Daily Wire pretend journalist Micheal Knowles wrote an article called "Here's All Of The Evidence Against Brett Kavanaugh". The entire article is blank. Get it? Because I guess there just isn't any proof against Kavanaugh. Which is odd considering there's quite a bit of proof against Kavanaugh. 

In 2002 Dr.Ford told her husband she was assaulted 16 years earlier by a then private citizen she went to a party with named Brett Kavanaugh. In 2012 she told a doctor the same story, by that point Kavanaugh was a judge on a court of appeals. 

Ford also passed a lie detector test, something Brett has refused to even try. So I think it's fair to say who is the more trustworthy one in this situation.

Football Man Who Didn't Stand Up Makes Nike Millions

Recently, Colin Kaepernick (who my auto-correct seems to want me to "Colin Pumpernickel") got a $14 million contract with Nike. If you don't remember, Kaepernick became famous for being a quarterback but lost his position due to him kneeling during the national anthem just before a football game in 2016 as a response to police brutality. 

This caused him to be fired from the NFL and, as such, has spent his days as an activist. Nike decided to pick him up and the right went crazy. Rather it be attempting to boycott Nike or just downright burning the products they already payed for, which will do something. I don't know, but I think the 60,000 homeless would like those Nike products and don't care if the spokesmen didn't stand up. Especially considering a marine told him to take a knee in the first place. 

But did the boycotts work? Nope. In fact, Nike has had record sales ever since they teamed up with Kaepernick. This is because the American people either don't care about politics or want to feel part of a movement. Even if they get that feeling from something as simple as buying a pair of tennis shoes. 

Does this mean that Nike cares about police brutality? Of course not. This means they realize that they realize that people who are anti-police brutality are a stable market. This is also assuming that Kaepernick isn't doing the same thing, which may be the case. 

Either way, Nike is doing better and they deserve it.

The Effects Of Climate Change: Less School For Your Kids!

As many are aware, the mainstream media has been saying for years that climate change is going to kill us. For some reason, the idea that the artic should have ice and New York shouldn't be flooded is very appealing to liberal journalists. 

However, no one in the mainstream leftist media seems to want to cover the positive effects of our changing climate. For instance, as Ohio learned recently, kids will have less school.

That's right, places like Cleveland (hometown of Lebron James) and Akron (hometown of . . . someone important I'm sure) recently had to call schools off because it was too hot for students. Not helped by the fact that many of these schools do not contain air conditioning, which I guess is also the result of leaving education to the states.

So that's right kids, more climate change equals less school for you guys. Another reason to vote Republican.

Hurricane Maria Deaths Now 4,000, Where's Donnie?

Recently, a Harvard study found that when Hurricane Maria ruined Puerto Rico last year, over 4000 people died. CBS also found that 2.975 people died in that hurricane. Huge margin of error, I know. But that's still a lot.

CBS also didn't cover this once on there television program. Instead they were to busy talking about how Donald was not nice enough towards McCain. Donnie didn't address this either. He was to busy doing rallies talking about how Democrats want to "raid Medicare to pay for socialism". Whatever that means. 

Puerto Rico is currently in an awful state. Reports have found them without power, clean water, healthcare, and much more. They are also left with nothing in case another hurricane rips through with hurricane season starting up. 

But let's just talk about the deaths. Here are the deaths caused by other major natural disasters:

Hurricane Andrew: 65

Hurricane Sandy: 285

Hurricane Katrina: 1,833 (And let's not forget, Bush's infamous non-response to Katrina caused his approval ratings to reach the lowest point any president had got at that point in US history)

All 3 of these events combined do not even reach the total the smallest current estimate claims died in this natural disaster. This is easily a failure on the part of the federal government.

The Catholic Church, Pope Francis, and Matt Walsh

Well, another sex abuse scandal took place in the Catholic Church. Is anyone really surprised at this point? Seriously, are Catholics even surprised at this point? I'm not. Only a few years ago they were caught shuffling pedophile priests around like a game of 3 card Monty.   

Of course the church has always had a history of pure evil. Rather it be censorship, repression, or murder and war. However, the excuse I always here from self-described catholic apologist is that "was in the past". Which is true. However, the only evolution they've made are the most basic things someone could imagine. They no longer kill for leaving the religion? They should have never started doing that in the first place. 

Others tell me that the crimes of Islam are much worse than the crimes of the church. This isn't entirely wrong. But if your best excuse is that your belief system isn't as bad as the one that kills gays, makes you get gender reassignment surgery if your homosexual, doesn't treat women like human beings, and is partly guilty for the biggest terrorist attack and mass shooting in US history then your faith is pretty bad. 

Higher ups in Islam kill. Higher ups in Catholicism rape children. These are both objective facts. 

Let's not forget how much of an open secret this has been throughout all of history. It was first publicized in 1985, over 30 years ago. The church has done very little since then to stop this problem because they don't care. 

Pope Francis was forced to deal with the fact that yet another sexual abusive scandal happened. With such ground-breaking and controversial previous takes as "Climate change is real" and "If god made everything, I guess that includes being gay" said basically what you'd expect.

You see, Pope Francis is against child abuse. Not against it to the point where he wants to do anything about it. But he doesn't like it enough to the point where he's willing to complain about it just before flying his private jet to complain about climate change. And let's not forget when someone asked him about his links he refused to answer. But I'm sure that's just a coincidence. Just like how reports are now coming out that he knew about this and said nothing.

That is when the media bothers to report on it. The mainstream media has been spending so much time defending Francis and the church that it's honestly sad. You would think they were trying to censor them. Which does actually make sense considering they are the Catholic Church. Even the people who are pretending to be critical are failing right into the traps of the church.

Enter Matt Walsh, Daily Wire columnist and someone who I have spent much time taking about before. In his recent column The Worst Bullies In America Matt is angry that LGBT activists got an orphanage shut down for, as he puts it, "the crime of being Catholic". 

I have two quotes from this column I would like to share with you. However, before I do I figure I should remind you he wrote this in defensive of a Catholic owned organization that has the sole purpose of caring for kids during a sex abuse scandal involving raping kids:
It is almost irrelevant to not that the organization's original adoption policy [of not allowing homosexuals to adopt] was . . . keeping with reason and science. Studies consistently show that . . . children win same-sex parented households have higher rates of . . . abuse.
The one and only "inequality" [homosexuals have] left [to protest] was the rule prohibiting active homosexuals from donating blood, due to astronomically higher rates of HIV in the gay community. But even this is under attack and being repealed. The LGBT lobby will risk giving HIV to hospital patients if it means they get to win another battle.
I would like to remind everyone Matt is a self identified Catholic and father of small kids. If Matt's thinking is correct, most notably that statics mean everything and 100% of the time apply to individuals no matter how old they are, then shouldn't he give up his own kids? Even buying Matt's excuse it's the fault of gays within the church (it makes about as much sense as it sounds), that still means gays are common within the church. So should Matt not be allowed to have his kids. Maybe. Honestly, I'm just sick of these excuses.

So . . . Let's Talk About Elizabeth Warren

Ever since the end of the 2016 election, many have thought that Senator Elizabeth Warren would be a potential front-runner for 2020. After all, after Bernie nearly won it only makes sense that the second most progressive Senator should give it a shot. Heck, after Hillary Clinton it seems like more women should give it a shot. 

This theory is also helped by her introducing a bill that would help regulate money in politics. If you remember, that was Bernie Sander's main campaign promise. Along with universal healthcare and college, both of which Warren also supports.

However, could Warren beat, not only Donnie but also the other Democrats? The answer is a giant maybe.

First off, in order for this to work, Bernie cannot run. Progressives prefer Bernie to Warren over 4 times over. This is mainly because, to her own fault, Warren backed Hillary over Bernie. This is something that just can't be ignored.

Here's another fact: In order for Warren to win, no conservative Democrats must run. Why is that? Because of the fact that conservative Democrats are still angry at Warren because she's part of the "Bernie wing" despite never backing Bernie. 

That's what makes Warren's run for president a particularly low shot. She's in that award place where, while she is far from a centrist, she cannot survive anyone other than her running for president.

Between the 4 most likely 2020 Democrats [Bernie Sanders, Joe Biden, Eric Holder, and Elizbeth Warren] Warren is clearly the longest shot. Mind you, that doesn't make her the worst candidate. In fact, her being president wouldn't be something I'm against. However, I'm just calling it as I see it.
