Plus the fact that women statistically live longer than men..

I'm not a POC (even tho FB sometimes decides I am) and I know *i* already feel that way. But then, it's clearer every day that the old dominant paradigm has zero intentions of giving up gracefully.

Yeah all you have to do is be a massive national figure and then you can do that. That's not practicable for most, and as said, he's fishy in his fundraising and has had to settle numerous FEC complaints.

Well she ain't unseating the two Senators who are popular, so no I don't see her road map there. Although she is absolutely gaffe tastic and has a tendency to shove her whole lower leg in her mouth on even key signature issues of hers. We can all thank her for the GOP talking points of Dems trying to get rid of cows, airplanes, and cars. Also tell me again how Medicare for All will cut back funeral costs.

We're never going to flip the true believer Trumpanzee, racist morons, but there were a lot of Independents who just wanted to give Trump a spin, since he's "not a politician." I think his novelty has worn off, and I think if Democrats run someone halfway normal, we've got a shot at winning. Bernie will lose in a landslide, and I seriously doubt Warren has a chance either, but we shall see.

Please, you're making way too much sense! Let's all just continue to rag on Joe Biden, and hope everyone forgets he's only been the front runner for the past year, because people just haven't come to their senses yet. We all really want Bernie Sanders, but we just haven't figured that out yet. It's not like we've already rejected him once before. Maybe he'll grow on us.

Oh, no, I didn't mean to imply you had offended me... but that other person sure seems to be in attack mode and to have decided that I think things I never have thought, and that kind of influenced how I responded.

Lololol, when you are stupid enough to say you'll ban hamburgers, you don't deserve a seat, especially when you say it "jokingly" and then have to demand they give you back your talking points. She wasn't whining about factory farming, she was whining about greenhouse gas emissions, which it isn't at all surprising that you aren't informed on that. And yeah stupidly and moronically saying that you want to ban those and air travel is one DUMB mistake. She's half baked and half cocked.

Yes, your original post is ageist, thank you for admitting it. But the fact you use one set of criteria for women and one for men is sexism.

Tedious.

If they can’t vote, they really don’t count.

I believe that Warren was saying what she thought would be best for the people of this country, not trying to appeal to some portion of it. Probably a mistake on her part. She should have been more calculating.

Yeah this season it's been about whom people know. That's it. And if you don't go in for super PAC money, that means ALL your fundraising comes off the back of how popular you are. Spoiler: being relatively unknown means that won't work.

He was pretty invisible to black voters in South Carolina and Hispanic voters in Nevada too. Or voters of any ethnicity nationwide for that matter.Yes he is one of the candidates I expected to do better and would not mind hearing from again, but come on, he just didn't campaign well.

I love Castro. I'm so sorry to see him go. At some point Warren will head out, and America will get the old white president it always wanted.
