2020 & All That

I've written next to nothing about the presidential election due in November 2020 - too many other things on my mind, I guess. Early this year, before medical issues for a second time snatched my attention, I did take a look at the natal charts of some likely Democratic contenders, even before they had announced their candidacies. I came to the conclusion that, of those I investigated, most likely to do well according to their natal charts and upcoming planetary transits, were Elizabeth Warren and Cory Booker. My posts on the topic from earlier this year can be accessed via the label cloud in the sidebar (scroll way down); just click on "presidential candidates 2020". Many moons have passed since those posts. Elizabeth Warren is, indeed, as I + her natal chart suspected, doing well in the polls - second only to Joe Biden in most of them.

I came to the conclusion, early on, that my own preferred candidate, Bernie Sanders, will not be allowed anywhere near the Democratic nomination by the DNC - nor will my other favourite candidate Tulsi Gabbard. Sad, but true. It has been said that the DNC would rather see another Trump presidency than ever countenance a US President Bernie Sanders. This - THIS - is what is so wrong about politics in the USA, and in the UK these days come to that. Jeremy Corbyn, the Labour leader there is equally vilified by many!


I'd not feel too badly about a president Warren with Booker as her VP, given the rest of the choices available. I shall now make Warren/Booker my prediction! I'd be surprised if Joe Biden can sustain his current lead - I rather hope not - he's just another Republican-lite in my estimation.

Of course, if I haven't shuffled off already by November 2020, I'll be 81 going on 82, and probably fixing to shuffle off before very much longer, so my feelings on this issue are somewhat irrelevant. I'd love to know how it all turns out though, and whether astrology worked well in this particular case.

So far I do like Warren as well and dislike Biden more and more. We have our own federal election here and it is more of the same shyte. Tories would be an unmitigated disaster. I'd say Trump would get a hero's welcome here if they win.

It's a mad tossup in serious issues like senior poverty. I am awaiting answers to tough questions I threw at them.

Wisewebwoman ~ I've always liked Elizabeth Warren, though she disappointed me in 2016 by endorsing H. Clinton. Forgive and forget though. :) Same thing with Cory Booker. I'll be a Bernie and Democratic Socialism follower for as long as he remains "in the game", we do need his voice to be heard (it's getting hoarse these days!) Perhaps a President Warren would make sure he got a meaningful role in her administration.

Keep on to those useless Canadian pols WWW, at every opportunity! At some point they'll simply have to answer, then you'll be able to pick 'em to pieces, word by word.
