Monday/ another candidate for 2020 .. go Democrats!

Wow, the Democratic candidates for President of the United States for the 2020 campaign have been jumping into the fray by the dozen and more. Tonight there was another, on Stephen Colbert’s Late Night Show. His name is Eric Swalwell and he is represents California’s 15th congressional district.  He is only 38 yrs old (got to be 35 to run for President), but he’s been a Congressman for 6 yrs, so that will help. I like him a lot. He’s been a regular guest on the cable news programs that I watch.

P.S. Psst! And for the first time ever, there will be a gay candidate running for President of the United States as well. I will write about him later. He is expected to announce his candidacy on Sunday April 14.

Congressman Eric Swalwell is on the left, with late night talk show host Stephen Colbert on the right. Swalwell will try to distinguish himself from the other Democratic Party candidates (and there may be as many as 20!), by making gun reform in the United States the primary issue that he will run on. (Background checks with no exceptions, ban assault rifles and start buying them back, start programs to try to prevent gang violence).
