Gillibrand Worried About White Men Leading in 2020 Dem Polls
EXCERPT:
JONES: "We got a poll we should put up at some point. I did notice in that poll that the top three were, I think, Biden, Bernie, and Beto. Three Bs, and all white guys. In a party as diverse as ours, does it worry you to see the top three being white guys?"
GILLIBRAND: "Yes."
JONES: "Why? Why?"
GILLIBRAND: "I just — I aspire for our country to recognize the beauty of our diversity at some point in the future and I hope some day we have a woman president. I love the fact that Barack Obama was our president for eight years. I hope more people of color, not only aspire and win the presidency, because that’s what makes America so extraordinary that we are all of that. We are everything. And I think a more inclusive America is a stronger America."
