Special counsel Robert S. Mueller III wrote a letter in late March complaining to Attorney General William P. Barr that a four-page memo to Congress describing the principal conclusions of the investigation into President Trump "did not fully capture the context, nature, and substance" of Mueller's work, according to a copy of the letter reviewed Tuesday by The Washington Post.

Personally, I think that is a losing proposition.

The way I read the midterm election, the Democrats were running on "Medicare for All" - and I don't seem to find any candidate going all out for it.
Just investigations and impeachment.

The other cause that draws me is the ending of the wars in which we have been stuck for almost two decades. They are rarely even discussed - or even mentioned.

If there is a Democratic candidate who would choose to - or dare to - run on a platform of withdrawing our troops from Afghanistan and Iraq - for starters - I would support and vote for that person. But I have yet to see it. Certainly nothing along those lines from the "leadership" of the Party.

And then - there is the aggressive action needed to save the planet. The most articulate spokesperson on this issue is the 16 year old Swedish young woman, Greta Thunberg.

I recommend you look up her name on Youtube and watch her presentations before such bodies as the United Nations, the European Parliament, and many other venues.

Lawmakers in 18 states across the country, including New York, Illinois and Washington, have introduced bills that would require all presidential candidates and their running mates to release their individual tax returns in order to qualify for the presidential primary ballot, according to the National Conference of State Legislatures.
The latest is in Illinois, where state senators approved a bill this month that would require presidential candidates and their running mates to release personal tax returns for at least the five most recent years in exchange for access to the state's 2020 ballot.

It feels like the desperate last throws of the establishment part of the Democratic Party.

Biden has zero chance against Trump.

I am extremely happy that @JoeBiden has decided to enter the race. He offers Dems the very best chance in 2020, especially in key states. He has the fight, intelligence and fortitude to beat Trump and begin to make America, America again. He has my enthusiastic support,

Speaking for myself only, I'm not necessarily looking to be "inspired" by a candidate. Given what's really at stake here, my only criteria in this particular election is that we field a candidate who can actually kick Trump's a$$ and wipe the floor with the Republicans. And I'll be honest here, while my personal preference is either Kamala Harris or Pete Buttigieg, I also have doubts about their staying power.

So, I'm keeping my powder dry, remembering the Rolling Stones' observation that we can't always get what we want, but we just might find we'll get what we need.

Biden's gonna get bad press coverage because the mainstream media thinks he's a boring story and the left-leaning media doesn't think he's woke enough. Not entirely unlike Clinton in 2016 although she had other factors that made it worse for her (including her gender).

Joe Biden leads President Trump by six points, according to the first poll published after the former vice president officially announced his candidacy Thursday.

The April 25-26 Hill-HarrisX survey of 1,000 registered voters found that 43 percent said they would choose Biden while 37 percent said they would pick Trump. Fifteen percent of respondents said they were unsure and 5 percent said they would vote for another candidate.

Problem is that several other candidates were in the same ball park.

Biggest problem I see for any dem candidate is with the way rules for the primaries are it almost certain there will be a brokered convention.  With CA early Harris will be in for a while.  Both Sanders and Biden will also be in it to the end; but I can't figure out how either of these three will get enough delegates for an out right win.

Sanders' bros don't always work and play well with others and this could be an issue with a brokered convention.  There is also the wild card of so many candidates who's supporters may act like mini Sanders' bros.
