Biden was emerging from his Delaware campaign headquarters when the car ploughed into an SUV guarding his motorcade
President Joe Biden and First Lady Jill Biden were rushed to safety by the Secret Service after a car suddenly ploughed into a parked SUV that was guarding the presidential motorcade.
Mr Biden was walking out of his campaign headquarters in Wilmington, Delaware, on Sunday night to his waiting armoured SUV when a silver copper sedan hit a US Secret Service vehicle that was closing off intersections for the president’s departure.
The sedan, which carried a Delaware licence plate, then tried to continue into a closed-off intersection, before Secret Service personnel surrounded the vehicle with their weapons drawn and instructed the driver to put his hands up.
Mr Biden was captured looking stunned and froze when he heard the loud bang close by.
Bernie, if he chose to run, which it seems he’s firmly decided not to. But, if he did, he would (imo of course) probably defeat Biden in the primary, and then completely obliterate the general.
The drive to find a viable “outsider” is stronger than ever, and Bernie has that, while also having a pretty firm lock on the moral high ground to shell Trump from. Biden has unfortunately lost that edge, due to his staunch support for Israel, which many of us consider to be the incorrect position in the modern day and are trying hard to pressure him away from.
I don’t think Bernie wants to, though. I think he’s okay supporting Biden, all things considered, and is also getting rather old himself. He blazed the trail that other progressives will have to follow to keep that torch aloft, and someday carry it into the presidency.
Sanders is older than Biden, so if we’re arguing that Biden is too old to be president, Sanders is definitely too old to be president. I don’t know whether he has a better chance of beating Trump or not, but on the subject of age, which is what was just brought up, Biden is a year younger than Sanders.
Yes, I am aware. I was focusing on Sanders’ advantages as opposed to his disadvantages. I think the advantages would strongly outweigh the disadvantages, despite the disadvantages existing.
I like bernie and supported him but I held my nose and voted hilary all the same. I really don’t see him running at this point.
Bernie would lose a great number of center votes. The guy was praising Chavez and Venezuela not that long ago. It is easy for him to suggest all these programs when he knows there is no way to pay for it.
Yeah, no one in their right mind would write all that.
World is a big place, get out more.
Ok, dad. Let me put in my crazy cap first, it’s cold outside.
Your biology will continue to change too, son, we’re not done growing at 18. Or even 25. Your experience will also increase as you meet more and more people, and the importance of compromise as a virtue, not a vice, will very likely become more apparent.
Especially if you ever have to parent a teen. That’s a really fun one.
Sure, as long as you aren’t denying the crazy.
Not at all. All the best people are a little crazy. The others are too often dull.
