    Well, honey, hes losing his ability to communicate clearly just as he should be at that age. Youre support of him is laudable but you gotta think about whats best for the 81 yr old man. The presidency is the absolute most stressful position anyone can undertake. Someone half bidens age would find it hyperaging lead to health issues that would detrimentally affect his skills at the job. Bidens results will be worse for both him and us. He is just too proud to admit it. Calmerheads need to work on him to make him see that he is not able to hold the reins anymore and should be about enjoying a well deserved retirement. We need someone that has their fingers on the american pulse and the vigor to work with and for it. Someone like, well, AOC

      If it saved this country from itself, I’d be willing for Biden to be chained and whipped in the oval office. We’re not deciding whats best for an 81 year old man, we’re deciding for the entire nation and even the international community especially with NATO on the line.

      If we elect the 79 year old instead of the 81 year old, social security is going to get cut and ruin lives for millions of people over 65.

      Maybe I agree with some of this comment. But that “honey” at the beginning comes off as pretty patronizing. At least, to me.

      AOC is still a hair to young to be eligible, but I would gladly take Jay Inslee, Gavin Newsom, or Beto O’Rourke. Hell, at this point I’d settle for Florida Man Jeb Bush if that’s what it takes to get swing voters on board.

      (People like to shit in Beto, but he almost won Texas, which is more than any recent Democratic presidential nominee can say.)

        She’ll be 35 on Election Day, no? And well before she would be sworn in? Plenty of reasons to say she shouldn’t run, but that one seems demonstrably false.

          I was just looking at her current age. Anyway, she’s not a candidate with a broad appeal. A lot of more mainstream Democrats like my dad hate her.
