That age group is going to have to show up first. 

 

In some states, Biden won or was fairly even in those age groups , btw. Especially with AA and Women voters. 

Political engagement increases with age. Boomer turnout was just as low as ours when they were our age. Gen X in their 20s turned out even less than millennials in their 20s today.  

Even if millennial turnout never increases, which it will, Baby Boomers are scheduled to leave this Earth many decades before us, luv. Sad but true. Death has been humanity's greatest fear since the beginning of existence, but... like... it definitely comes with some perks. 

God has his reasons for everything. Born This Way confirmed this so it's not up for debate. Let us just embrace the way he made things. God is good, yes he is.

still no matter the NOM , lets getout and vote early absentee, stand in line by nov 3 to beat trump, Mi will be blue and MN,PA, all states hillary lost. Bernie had better chances then , he cant off promises without way to pass them . Im all for M4a , I Live on Medicaid and its saved my life from addiction after a car accident and catastrophic damage,ptsd etc. Have faith, The fix WAS NOT IN, his campaign spent zero dollars and was abandonding ship 2 weeks ago. This is our comeback and Bernie didnt even win the 15% threshold in MS.

biden has 99/100 chance of winning the nom and Bernie was a flash in the pan and he didnt bring out the wide coalition of voters but Biden brought out Obama,biden dems and THERE's no fix in it for him. his campaign was dead before SC.  My Gov Whitmer will help vet his Vp

Guess it's over... Sad. America had the chance to finally do something great, but whatever.

On a positive note, even though I dislike Biden and I would never vote for him, he's more than likely to win over Trump and he already insinuated that he would choose a black woman as VP so that would make a huge and important statement. Also, he implied that that he would only run as a one-term president, so his VP might take over.

Dem candidates will hopefully listen to Latinos in future elections. They’re the reason Bernie has a fighting chance in Washington state (which is also having a crazy turnout because of the mail-in ballots).

This is not what we need: the 2016 lesser of two evils debate. 

It's what cost Hillary the election.

Once it's a "lesser of two evils" situation the less of two evils debate is already in people minds, even if they don't share it wishing to not hurt the nominee etc it will be what gonna make people chose their vote.

That's like when people say "don't say negative about a candidate you like less if he/she's the next nominee!". The shady stuffs will be outed by republicans so it's not like if there was a way to erase the past anyway. If anything, it's better out way ahead than a few weeks before the election with people going to vote with the bitter taste about the dem candidate still in their mouth.

Don't worry, guys. Unlike boomers, we have an entire life of politics ahead of us. Bernie won the 18-44 vote by insane margins. He is what the future of the party looks like. We didn't win, but at least we can say more confidently than ever that the days of neoliberalism are numbered. As long as this generation keeps its convictions alive, time is on our side.  Stay hungry for justice. It's coming.

Hillary fought for healthcare in the 90s. Obama was the first one to deliver. Another moderate, maybe Biden, will continue this. People are so uninformed that they think that Bernie came up with these things. The only difference is that the other people have plans. Bernie is just making promises that no one believes he can deliver. All the other candidates had something like "medicare for all who want". 

So yea, the 18-30 group will only go moderate and conservative. Some of the problems will be solved. That's how things work. Bernie and the progressive movement is losing today and will continue to do that if they can only deliver it on Twitter. Go Biden.

biden won ALL 83 counties here in MI. thats saying something huge! He is our best shot. And Mi had almost a Million more ballots due to no reason absentee voting!

sis people are going to vote trump for the very reason they voted him over these establishment shills. trump may be bad but people are over the rigged/corrupt system and politicians. if hillary couldn't beat trump, a dementia patient isn't going to - especially after their debates lol.

That statement is very abelist  and he has a stutter he' suffers deblilitation from which is why he switches up mid sentance. Hillary showed she was gonna lose MI in the primary, he won every county and sweeped all states except cali. He has the most delegates since 2008. I feel we will win with the obama-biden democrats and suburban housewifes, AA vote and people like me. I understand Gov't and M4A could never passed for 5+ yrs .  In Michigan we had more votes than our last gubernatorial race over about by 1.4 million cause of the ease of voting absentee. Biden might not win huge but a 3-5% chance he'll sweep electoral college cause of trump voters hating trump and moderates liking biden, My new Gov and old Mi Gov endorsed and are on his transistion team helping vet a VP. Michigan is ground zero from 2016 that foreshadowed trump winning. NOW we have hope and Biden had nearly no money so i dont want to hear establishment etc. Bernie needs to concede and UNITE and heal our party to Defeat the most dangerous POTUS. he'll gut more lgbt protections, and medicare,sos sec. medicaid!!!

If you think all Biden has is a stutter, then you aren't paying attention. Biden has had 2 brain aneurysms, 2 brain surgeries, and is 77. This is NOT a stutter:

His team's strategy all the way up to this point has been to hide him from the public as much as possible and bank purely on media support and name recognition. That's not going to be possible in the general.

Damn, just realized Trump and the Republicans have successfully shifted the Democratic Party more to the right.  Although leftist voices were strong, Dem voters went with a center-right choice. 

Congratulations to them.

He’s said some things that seem moderate so that’s why I brought him up. I’ve even debated him on some things. Y’all missed that post and that’s fine. 

Economy forms his own opions .. he's not a trend follower or simply I will back up my friends opinion because …. da da da …. 

I don't get as many likes but that's how I do it too …

so you agree that he is not fit to run for president of the united states. it's not ableism when peoples livelihoods are at stake. this is bigger than some buzzword your going to throw at what i just said and i hope your eurocentric bias allows you to see that. joe biden is a war criminal and has blood on  his hands, for not only the veterans that died but the over 200k iraqi civilian. a war on false pretenses in which 46% of those killed were under 15. out of hundreds of millions of people you guys have this is going to be your head of state?
