Feel free to offer other suggestions, especially for Libertarian and Green, since I don't know who might run for these parties. 

You can download 2020 Election 1.0 on the website. The big names have already been included.

Why? It is INCREDIBLY unlikely that every single one of those candidates will run in 2020...

Yeah, I'm going to disregard his vote on this. He either isn't thinking logically or didn't read the questions.

Do you really believe they are all more likely to run than not in 2020?

I do. Palin has never ruled out a run for the president. Ernst is a rising, conservative star in the Republican Party and young. Haley would run given she was critical of Trump in the past. Ayotte will probably run as well, given she lost her Senate seat- with the exception if she decides to run for the other seat. And Bachmann ruled out 2016- however, compared to some of the other women that have run (mainly Hillary), she is younger. 

As for the Democrats, I've heard Duckworth could consider a run, and given her win for the Senate seat, that would strengthen her even more so. Gov. Edwards won in a traditionally Republican Louisiana, though probably in due part to the allegations that were being used against his opponent. As for Tester, he would be a establishment favorite (for the Democrats anyway). 

Now that I think about it, Ayyotte may not run- she lost her seat, and most will probably forget about her, unless she was chosen for a spot in the Trump administration. I am just going by speculation and also, the factors and base each of these potential candidates represent.

I do hold the belief that O'Malley's 2016 run was more of an exploratory attempt for a possible 2020/2024 run, to get some national name recognition. 

I don't think his tactic worked if that was the case. Most people aren't going to remember O'Malley, Webb or Chaffee in 2020. O'Malley didn't do well at all. I think it all depends on what he does between now and then.

O'Malley won 0.5% in the Iowa Democratic caucuses. :D
