1. Way too soon.

I think Biden is too old and has health issues (those AVMs that were repaired years ago).

HRC has said she doesn't want to do it--if she changes her mind, I think it's hers to refuse.

The rest of the field needs to increase their national profile, and/or needs a bit more seasoning.

2. I'm not sure.

I'm going to enjoy this victory first.

3. Grayson

[justiceischeap]

4. Kirsten Gillibrand. nt

[AnnaLee]

5. Gotta admit my old age drove this one.

No one will understand this one but I chose Hilary over O'Malley mostly because I don't want to die before seeing the first woman elected to the highest office in my nation.

6. Schweitzer. Turn some of the big empty squares blue. nt

[LAGC]

17. Ditto.

He knows how to get elected in the GOP's backyard.

[samsingh]

7. Hillary all the way baby

[AsahinaKimi]

8. Julian Castro?

[GoneOffShore]

16. Great on the VP side.

[treestar]

9. O'Malley

Hillary and Biden IMO are getting on in years.

[Daniel537]

10. Jon Tester

He's got the rural appeal.

[Tikki]

11. Maybe Missouri Governor Jay Nixon -D wants to be somewhere in the mix...

by then...We'll see.

12. Hillary

If she runs, it'll be 16 straight years of Democratic presidents. (Yea, she'll win reelection too lol)

[Pryderi]

13. Elizabeth Warren?

[potatoslayer]

18. yeah, warren

[Warpy]

14. I'm kinda hoping Brian Schweitzer gets interested

He keeps saying that Governor of Montana was it for public office, that he hated Washington D.C, but I'm hoping that will change.

[ChoppinBroccoli]

26. I Like Schweitzer Too

Don't know if he has what it takes to run for President, but I really enjoy hearing him speak. Got to know him first at the 2008 Democratic Convention, but liked how he recently took Issa to task on Bill Maher's show.

[GoneOffShore]

15. Way too soon and Hilary would be a great replacement for Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

Just saying.

[juajen]

19. If Hillary does not run, I will support Elizabeth Warren, with joy.

[NJRick1006]

20. Any of the above

Any potential candidate listed will be perferctly fine. But please, let's not start tearing each other apart when Primary Season comes along in late-2015/early-2016.

[bluethruandthru]

21. Bernie!!!!! n/t

[leftofcool]

22. Hillary with Deval Patrick as VP

[dawg]

23. Hillary has my vote if she wants it.

If not, I like what I've seen of O'Malley.

Julian Castro needs to be given a national position of some authority so as to get him accustomed to politics at the national level. I would love to eventually see him as a Presidential or V.P. candidate, but right now he lacks the requisite experience.

[JCMach1]

24. Clinton/Patrick 2016

[ChoppinBroccoli]

25. SHERROD BROWN!!!!

[Zorra]

27. I'm thinking we need more forward thinking, progressive candidates in the future.

The future is definitely not in status quo New Dem/DLC/Third Way type candidates.

I like all the folks you listed OK, but it's time to totally clean all vestiges of corporatism out of the Democratic Party.

[chieftain]

28. Senator Warren
