MANCHESTER, N.H. — Just like that, the 2020 retail campaigning for president began right here in a strip-mall campaign headquarters Monday, when Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti showed up for what he called “the most important race in the country.”
He was talking about the Manchester mayor’s election. Joyce Craig, the Democratic candidate, invited him to join her for an afternoon that also included a speech to the Manchester Young Democrats and a fundraiser. Garcetti worked the crowds, introduced himself as “Eric,” and took a bumper sticker and put it on the back of the black SUV he was driving around in.
“Pay no attention to the Virginia plates,” he said. “It’s a rental.”
On Tuesday, Rep. John Delaney (D-Md.), the only one to have already officially announced, will be here for a two-day trip, trying to get attention for his long-shot bid. On Labor Day, both Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) and Jason Kander, the Democrat who narrowly lost his U.S. Senate bid in Missouri last year, will be back.
And on Thursday, Sanders — who was in Indiana and Michigan last week — will be in Iowa, along with Sen. Amy Klobuchar of Minnesota. Sen. Jeff Merkley of Oregon will be there in October. Former Vice President Joe Biden, who made his own teasing stop here in Manchester at the end of April, is headed to South Carolina in September.
Some people knew who he was. Some said hello and asked him, "You’re the mayor of … ?”
And meanwhile, a staffer collected names and contact information on a clipboard.
Delaney said he’s hoping to take advantage of everyone else being so coy, figuring that he has the field of declared candidates to himself for a year and a half, while voters are hungry to hear from alternatives.
“Normally people would say, eight months into a new president, let’s give him a chance. I don’t think people are really saying that,” he said.
A man at one of the stops told Garcetti, after the obligatory cellphone photo: “Come back sometime.”
“I will,” the mayor said.
“Maybe when you run for president.”
“Maybe. We’ll see.”
By the next stop, Garcetti had shifted. Come back soon, a man told him as he headed for the car to the airport for the flight home.
“I will,” he said.

Kamala is amazing breh. Being from Cali she'll likely run on legalizing Marijuana and single payer health care.
Democrats have to win back Congress and Governor's mansions in 2018 before they even start thinking about winning back the WH in 2020.
