But after everything with Hilary I just don’t see America Electing a women president let alone a women or color, I hope we can do that as a country but I think we’re still far too divided They literally just overwelmingly elected a woman of color as VP. What says that all those Biden voters won’t vote for her again? Your internalized doubt? Please provide political reasoning beyond your feelings I got drunk Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
REALITY 80,269 Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 I legitimatley don't think he's going to run for re-election. I think he's saying this now because it's better PR. I mean, how good would it be to have him be like, "Yeah, he's just not in it. He's not going to run again." He seems relatively fine now, but he's just going to be too old, I think, by the time he runs again, nevermind making it to the end of his second term.

There is zero reason why senior citizens need to be representing me, someone who is almost 30. Honestly, just keep your mouth closed trying to claim a 85 year old politician can relate to me. No they can't and never will. Anyone who thinks that shouldn't be allowed to vote. We need a revolution in the USA whose end goal is to purge these out of touch people from power. I hope and pray it happens in my lifetime. You remind me that it's such a wonderful thing to love. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KillerMonster 2,361 Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 His health is already on a steep decline. He struggles to just put together a coherent sentence. He will definitely not be able to re-run again. Don’t play with me, it just hurts me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the bar was so low with Trump we got to start somewhere I hope and pray we get a young, intelligent, new president in 2024; not someone who born before the invention of colored television You remind me that it's such a wonderful thing to love.

It has been widely found that the volume of the brain and/or its weight declines with age at a rate of around 5% per decade after age 40, with the actual rate of decline possibly increasing with age particularly over age 70 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2596698/ Any mental deterioration could be a very sudden slope, or a slow decline. That's not to say I think Biden shouldn't run again just because he's old (I think that for plenty of other reasons), but Dems should be prepared for the possibility that Biden will become incapacitated and/or unable to serve rather than just close conversations with "Biden will seek re-election" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PartySick 174,378 Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 I'd vote for him again in a heartbeat. He's been kicking ass so far, but I'm lowkey hoping Kamala takes the torch in 2024 as the candidate. My only fear is that Biden runs again, wins again, and almost immediately steps down to give the seat to Kamala the voters would see that as deceptive imo and it could hurt Democrats' prospects in future elections. And while I don't really care about the age of politicians all that much, I agree that I want less of Joe Biden, Bernie Sanders, Mitch McConnell, Nancy Pelosi, etc and more of Jon Ossoff, AOC, the "Squad", Pete Buttigieg etc. Idk any young, prominent Republicans that aren't Trump/Q freaks so I can't name any we need some new blood and the boomers need to retire.

WhiteWitch 720 Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 He stated he expects to, but can’t really plan for certain because it’s 3.5 years from now. I think that’s for obvious reasons and it would be great if this was not half quoted everywhere. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
