Well, Deval Patrick is comparatively young at 63.
He, along with billionaires Tom Steyer and Michael Bloomberg, is a later entry for the 2020 presidential race under the Democrat ticket. He launched his campaign two weeks ago.
Patrick, the former governor of Massachusetts (succeeding Mitt Romney) and a civil rights lawyer in Chicago, was reportedly urged to run by Obama back in 2017, but decided against joining the crowded field of candidates. He's more of a centrist than most of the other candidates.
Patrick did some good things in Massachusetts in terms of health care and wages, plus he's a quiet but gifted speaker, in my opinion. I haven't seen him gaining much traction so far.
