2020 election

In the 1964 presidential campaign Berry Goldwater reignited conservatism but the country wasn't ready and he lost in a landslide but it set the stage for Reagan in 1980. In the 1972 presidential campaign George McGoven set up a commission to revamp the Democratic Party. The commission significantly reduced the role of party officials and insiders in the nomination process, increased the role of caucuses and primaries, and mandated quotas for proportional black, women, and youth delegate representation. The country wasn't ready for these changes and McGovern lost in a landslide but it set the stage for all of the changes that have since taken place in the Democratic Party. The result is that we have 100 female representatives and 25 female senators, 56 Blacks and 43 Hispanics. The 2020 election will bring in significant changes in the Democratic Party but the country is not ready. The ideas being presented are ahead of the people. Change can occur but not so fast. Things like monthly checks to all citizens, changing the Supreme Court, wealth tax, national healthcare and changing the electoral college are too much too fast for most people. These changes may well happen but it will be in the future. The only chance for democrats is if the dislike of Trump is so great that people will overlook the campaign promises understanding that they are just that, promises. Just one mans opinion.
