Democrats like charismatic candidates too.

Anyway, the two party system seems to breed extremes. I'd like to see ranked choice, same day, primaries, and abolishment of the slavers' electoral college.

Yes, we like charismatic candidates, but we don't run them.

In all sincerity, Jon Stewart is highly electable. More realistically, I think Pete Buttigieg would dominate the podcast circuit in a way that Kamala Harris dared not even try.

And in all sincerity, I think he'd be a good president too. He isn't interested in running, however, so the point is moot.
