- Elizabeth Warren - The populists populist, she would play well in the rust belt states.
- Sherrod Brown - A rust belt state populist with a strong following.
- Cory Booker - Popular, charismatic, a populist, strong minority appeal.
- Amy Klobuchar - A well respected, pragmatic liberal with bipartisan appeal.
- Kirsten Gillibrand - Women and the LGBT community love her.
- John Hickenlooper - Middle American Governor who legalized marijuana.
- Andrew Cuomo - Governor of a large liberal state that is doing quite well.
- Kate Brown - Her state has become a liberal petri dish and is performing well doing so.
- Al Franken - Name appeal, sharp as a whip, not afraid to take people on.
- Tim Kaine - He won a lot of fans in the 2016 campaign.
I really like most of the names on this list, I would easily vote for any of them over Donald Trump in 2020. Of the names above, I suspect that Warren, Brown, Booker and Klobuchar would have the edge, but if Kate Brown keeps Oregon humming along like she has, I think she could become a solid sleeper bet. Mark Cuban is another name to watch, although nobody is quite sure if he's even a Democrat.
