 Isn’t it a little early to be thinking about the 2016 U.S. general election? Maybe not. Surely by early next year several people will declare themselves to be candidates for either the Republican or Democratic nomination. Already we can see the outline of the race to come. But who are the people in question?  Let’s take a look.

Republicans

Senator Paul Rand

Governor Jeb Bush

Governor Christ Christie

Governor Bobby Jindal

Democrats

Former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton

Vice President Joe Biden

Senator Elizabeth Warren

Senator Bernie Sanders

Senator Russ Feingold

Governor Andrew Cuomo

Governor Jerry Brown

Governor Martin O’Malley

These are the early possibilities. Some names will surely disappear, and some new ones will appear. Dark horses will appear seemingly from nowhere and some leading candidates will bow out for one reason or another. In short, it will be presidential politics as usual in the USA. And it will surely be exciting and worth watching.
