I was browsing the Internet looking for a site that provided a reasonably comprehensive list of possible presidential candidates for 2020 when I realized that the search engine I was using, Bing, had one at the top of their page...so I wrote it down below, adding to each name the person's background. Naturally, the opposition party has more potential candidates than the incumbent's party...I'm unfamiliar with many of them, especially those serving in the House of Representatives or in state political offices. Right now, I'd like to see either senator Amy Klobuchar or former VP Joe Biden run and win...but it's still very, very early and somebody not on this list could rise up out of nowhere and steal the show...
