      I agree with him, but that doesn’t mean I think he should be president. While I really like the idea of him as president in theory, I do feel that he is too old and that there are too many risks associated with that. We should have age limits regardless of who’s running. But I think he’d make a great advisor to a president regardless—that way if he takes a turn for the worse it doesn’t put the country in any sort of jeopardy.

      He is the singular exception to all of our complaints about age, although we do still complain about his age. He gets a pass because he’s been doing the work for decades.

      No one is asking for Bernie as president anymore-- he’s clearly too old. But we like his speeches and party leadership.

      Bernie is a whole lot more compos mentis than Biden ever was.

      The right time to elect him would’ve been 2016…

      It’s arguing in bad faith

      They don’t have a legitimate reason for their candidate over a different one so they just repeat fox news talking points
