[Update @ 0643 on 23 August: The events in Paradise, California, coupled with the Democratic National Committees shut down of any discussions about single-issues debate and the inability of the other candidates to fucking give a shit, I have declared my full throated support—as I did in 2015/16—for Bernie Sanders to be the next President of The United States of America.]

All other factors being equal—and yes, I know, all other factors are not equal—I’m grouping my ranking this way: first, African-American women; second, other women of color; third, European-American women; fourth, African-American men; fifth, other men of color; and finally, European-American men. Note that Joe Biden is at the bottom of my list, but crossed out. I will vote to reëlect President Donald John Trump before I’ll cast a vote for Biden.

My top picks in each category—if I have one—are highlighted in bold.

Here is my ranking of the 2020 Democratic Party Presidential Candidates as of 16 May 2019:

Stacey Abrams (not yet declared), Kamala Harris;

Tulsi Gabbard;

Elizabeth Warren, Marianne Williamson, Amy Klobuchar and Kirsten Gillibrand;

Wayne Messam and Cory Booker;

Julián Castro and Andrew Yang;

Bernie Sanders, Pete Buttigieg, Michael Bennet, Steve Bullock, Bill de Blasio, John Delaney, Mike Gravel, Jay Inslee, Seth Moulton, Beto O’Rourke, Eric Swalwell, Tim Ryan and Joseph R. Biden Jr—I will vote to reëlect President Donald John Trump before I’ll cast a vote for Biden.
