Bernie Sanders already gearing up for 2020? [W:59]

[Texas]

This unofficial Bernie Sanders ad looks very official if you ask me.

 

[Hawkeye10]

What a disappoint he is....This guy always disappoints.

He is smart enough to know that what America needs is a new class of leaders, because the ones we have have failed, that's what he should be working on now.

And at his age....REALLY!

 

[Roadvirus]

He'll be damn near 80 when the 2020 campaigning would start. That's too old.

He is the quintessential angry old man trying for revenge.

 

[Phys251]

If he wants to help the Democrats lose another presidential election, then he will run again. And Russia knows it.

 

[reinoe]

I'd have a lot more respect for him if he refused to endorse Hillary when he knew she worked with the MSM to sabotage his campaign. The fact that he bowed down and kowtowed to her is a disgrace.

How about Republican disgrace! Trump throughly insults Ted Cruz and his father, and then we find Cruz backing Trump to the hilt. This is far from the only example of this disgrace.

For me it is that he did not think he could win, so he entered the race but did not try to win till after he figured out that he could win, which was too late, and now he wants to try it again....at his age.

Something about being an old fool and a day late and a dollar short yet again and "If you dont believe in you then why should I?".....

We need a better younger champion, this one was never good and now he is shot.

And delusional apparently.

He's 1 year older than Joe Biden, just for context.

Maybe they're both too old. But, I never hear anyone lament Biden's age when his possible candidacy is discussed.

Cruz is backing Trump's policy agenda. Once you "resistance" types lose often enough on policy then maybe it'll get through that it doesn't matter if Trump is a smooth talking wordsmith or a blundering oaf: what matters is the policy. But hey, if you folks are content with losing over and over again in the ideas department then that's fine be my.

Actually I see it all the time, and with Biden it is even worse given his medical history.

We have all of these very old failed politicians thinking that they can still be President, which goes to show how weak the bench is, how bad our political system is....by the design of them who run it I say. It's not so much different than Mogadishu, where things are crap precisely because those at the top want it that way...it works for them and screw everyone else:

We lost so badly that we had 3 million more votes.

Congratulations on running up the score in liberal strongholds like California and New York! That's not how presidents are elected though. Maybe you folks can petition to start moving liberals to places like Kansas and Montana.

Don't forget Trump is currently the oldest office-holder in US history. It's pretty hysterical if you ask me.

Maybe this teaches that we should not have the very old as President, because they know they are going to be dead soon, that they are not going to have to live with the consequences of what they do.

FOOD FOR THOUGHT

 

[OldFatGuy]

If you call endorsing a corrupt, lying piece of turtle turd like Bill DeBlasio for a mayoralty rerun for NYC as "gearing up" then you don't know what senility is. Do you also believe a mayor hiring his wife for a $200k do nothing job good progressive governance? A man is known by who he chooses as his friends.

Strikes me as nearly the same mistake they made with Hillary, trying to jam through someone because it's "their turn" rather than because they are electable.

Bernie's too old and at this stage he has too much baggage.

What they need is a relatively young up and comer with charisma, who is agreeable to the liberal vision, while accepting that much of it is not presently possible.

But they can't force it. It has to be a product the public picks up on it's own.

And Trump will be 78 in 2024, I am assuming from your statement, you will not be supporting Trumps reelection in 3 years time ? You know, for being to old.

 

[yankintx]

No Sir, that would be Trump and his unhealthy obsession with Obama and Hilldog. You may want to check them before telling the otherside what they should be doing.

#1: The DNC absolutely doesn't want him to run; the party is currently run by neoliberals for neoliberals. The only thing it loves about Bernie is the enthusiasm he generates, donations he might encourage and the people he brings into the fold, which is why he's tolerated (but never truly embraced).

#2: The dude is the most popular national level politico by far; it's not about it being his turn so much as that he's a truly viable candidate.

#3: I'd be down with a younger protege like Tulsi Gabbard.

My thoughts exactly; on this point the sheer disingenuous double think among establishment Democrats is beyond ridiculous.

Votes are votes and people are people, you lost the popular vote!

 

[lurchadams]

Yep. Bernie would make a great campaign chairman or advisor for someone younger and more marketable like Tulsi Gabbard or (fill in attractive, hip, and articulate candidate here).

If Bernie runs again all he'll prove is that he's a sad, narcissistic old man.

 

[Abbazorkzog]

It's not. Bernie probably won't announce a run until the push for him to do so is fairly unanimous/sweeping. Pretty far along there though considering he's been the most popular politician in the US for a few years running now.

 

[Moderate Right]

We lost so badly that we had 3 million more votes.

Funny how you call yourself a "moderate" and then turn around and say, "We lost so badly that we had 3 million more votes".

 

[Moderate Right]

Votes are votes and people are people, you lost the popular vote!

I don't see Hillary in the White House. Funny how you guys keep on claiming that Russia influenced the election and then turn right around and proudly say that you had three million more votes.
