Sen. Cory Booker eyes 2020 presidential run

The early days of the Democratic primary campaign are highlighting the party`s diversity as it seeks a nominee who can build a coalition to take on President Donald Trump. A number of high-profile candidates remain on the sidelines, including two who would further bolster the diversity of the 2020 field: Sens. Cory Booker of New Jersey, who is black, and Amy Klobuchar of Minnesota. Booker, who`s widely expected to join the presidential fray in the coming days, visited the pivotal early-voting state of South Carolina this week for public events honoring King and private meetings with local activists.
