Three senators are running for president. Each of them are leaders in their own ways. After this year's election, one of them will go on to lead from the executive branch, and the other two will go back to their jobs in the Senate and lead in the legislative branch. None of them is really the worse off, and each in their own way will still have lots of work to do on behalf of the American people.

I believe, however, that America needs a democrat in the White House at this time in its history, precisely because of the history of the Democratic Party during its best days.
