Watching Sen. Michael Bennet on Seth Meyers.

Getting a feel for him.

Who doesn't make it to the top perhaps such as this contender should be considered for key positions in the next 2021 Democratic Administration! ☺

Only thing: His running--did that jeopardize his Senate seat representing CO? 🤔

11. I've only seen him on MSNBC - the time he spoke out before the Senate on the shutdown
Sat May 18, 2019, 01:43 AM

He made big news because he was known as being "mild mannered" as his daughters said.

Michael Bennet's full speech on the shutdown



Sen. Michael F. Bennet (D-Colo.) on Jan. 24th gave an emotional speech on the shutdown and the state of American democracy on the Senate floor.

13. I know! This is when he suddenly jumped into the news - he wasn't known for speaking out like this!

And this may be what motivated him to run for the nomination!

I, for one, am encouraged by and proud of our contenders.

It will be interesting and exciting to see who the front runner will be.
