Nominations. and what the senate does for a couple years it will continue to do from there on out. it set new precedent and that is in the past two years there have been 128 nominations that have slowed down dramatically. thats requiring what is called an intervening day plus an additional 30 hours after that intervening day. so its really three days to be able to move one person. any future president requires about 1,000 people to be able to go through the nomination process that are just on th...

A better choice, someone in the middle who can speak to their values, they would vote for someone like me. paul: lets bring in wall street journal columnist and deputy editor, dan henninger, mary anastasia ogrady and james freeman. james, howard schultz is a lifetime democrat. >> yes. paul: are you surprised that he is suggesting he might run as an independent? why do that? >> i think hes seeing an opportunity here where poyou ha a democratic nomination process that seems currently built to anoi...

Decency and moral clarity and treat all people with dignity and respect. >> she went on i think the next sentence talked about how and i will tell you the truth. so truth, moral clarity, dignity, these are the things that shes going to be hitting and, you know, i guess is that enough? are people so hungry for those themes that that is what will launch her to the top of the field? >> well, in a word it was all about contrast. it was kamala harris trying to portray herself in starkly different ter...

Like joe biden? is it a fighter like elizabeth warren? were going to have debate, tv ads, contests to decide that. there are some advantagings that harris brings to the field. not only does she have that diversity where she is african-american, which could help her with african-american voters who are key. also california has an outsized role in the democratic nomination process, given its early move and the delegate allocation map that goes on. well see how these people play out and what the fi...
