    Dream on but what 3rd party candidate is going to have not only the money but the organization to mount a serious challenge to the entrenched powers that be? Billionaire H. Ross Perot had the money but not much else. Mark Cuban has floated the idea of getting into politics but if he did he would have to run as either an R or a D to have a shot at winning.

    Agree though the Libertarian party is close if they could attract enough moderates to be a factor.

    Maybe Cuban could do it if he chose to run as a Libertarian. He has the money as well as name recognition from being a regular on the very popular TV show Shark Tank. I don't think what his political philosophies are but I would think that as a businessman he would lean toward the conservative side. He hates Trump but I didn't like the fact that in the end he supported the Hildebitch.

    Will never be a factor. When pushed, people will pick one side or the other, not the mushy middle.

    Moderates accomplish nothing but a slower march to socialism.

    Pussy-ass bitch. A white and even more emotional version of Obama. No thanks.

    not for vball, ✓,.. but you sense his ambition if not his appeal?

    I was just thinking about who the democrats will choose as Presidential candidate in 2020.

    To beat Trump, you need an emotionless skin sack that can stay on topic. I dont think the left has that in their arsenal.

    I can't think of a strong candidate,.. the dems need new blood and a lot of it, but I think it would have to be someone with moderate appeal, to sway no-Trump repubs.. ... they'll probably just revert back to John Kerry, Al Gore or Joe Lieberman
