Breaking News: Deceased Iranian General Soleimani Surges Into 4th Place In Democratic Primary Race Relatively unheard of outside of intelligence circles, deceased Iranian General Qassem Soleimani has surged into 4th place in the national primary polls among likely Democratic voters. His name identification increased significantly in the past week. Just days after President Trump ordered Soleimani’s killing for orchestrating attacks on American forces and the U.S. embassy in Baghdad, and decades of bombings in the region, many Democrats think he has the stuff to beat Trump in the 2020 presidential election. “He was a great man, and I share his opinion of Israel,” Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) said of Soleimani. Omar continued “That’s why I am proud to endorse him as my favorite candidate in the 2020 primary.” Fox News analysts were quick to question what people are doing selecting a dead Iranian who cannot legally run for office in the United States, but a spokesman for the Democratic National Committee said, “Dead people have been voting for our candidates for a long time. It’s about time we allow a dead person to run for office!” It’s likely that if he was nominated, Soleimani would select Omar as his running mate. MSNBC noted "The General is dead set in this opinions and knows when to keep his mouth shut." The slogan for the Soleimani campaign is "He hated America, but at least he was honest about it," and supporters note his health is only slightly worse than that of Joe Biden and Bernie Sanders. A big question is whether the General would have crossover appeal in a general election. The Soleimani campaign emphasizes that the General can reach out to independents and Republicans because he is the only major Democratic candidate who not yet endorsed the $93 trillion Green New Deal, Medicare for All, and free healthcare for Illegal aliens.
