      How about we appreciate the work he’s done but get some actual you get folks who aren’t boomers in charge. His time has unfortunately passed for the highest office but he can be hugely effective in an important cabinet position.

          lol, no you. Feinstein was too old as well. There should be an age restriction on both ends for government jobs.

            I don’t think they expected people to live this long when they wrote the constitution, and I know they didn’t consider how tribalistic the country would get. Well, Washington did, but nobody listened to him.

      I’ve been saying that for over ten years now, but the time has passed for him. Doesn’t he have a younger protege that we can start pushing?

      I voted for him in the 2020 primary, but if were pushing Biden out because he’s too old then the same certainly applies to Bernie. Even if he’s more coherent and effective now, how will he be in four years?
