And how is Hillary (EMAILGATE, GAZIGATE, LEWINSKYGATE, LIAR), BERNIE SANDERS (SOCIALIST CRAZY, HAIRY EARED), BIDEN (LIAR, PLAGIARIZER, SITONA**ALLDAY) not a complete clown car? Hey, I'll vote for them, as the BEST circus act of the year! Might be even better they watching miley cyrus finger herself on stage

We're MORE likely to swing either way when talking landslides unlike Black people who are all but "owned" by the Dems.

THOSE old white people are OK I guess.
Actually, Biden will be 74 less than 3 weeks after the election.

The Democratic Party is, once again, the party of rich old white men.

Hill-billyâ„¢ would be a "wipe it with, like, a towel?" 69 year-old.
Biden will turn 74 next year.
Sanders will be 75 next year.

Reagan was the oldest president we ever elected, yet Biden and Sanders would be over half a decade OLDER.

I ask those that would vote for someone Sander's age: Would you get on a bus that's being driven by a 75 year-old? Schedule eye surgery with a 75 year-old surgeon?

I believe you left off one key date:

Hillary: 1947-2016.

Default Fellow Democrats, time for Plan B for 2016?

True to form, the Republicans are making fools of themselves once again. Even without Trump, their lineup of 2016 hopefuls is hilarious. Most of them would be better suited for America's Next Top Comic than for the White House. It's hard not to be complacent when this is your competition. Still, it looks like it might be prudent to come up with a back up candidate in case Hillary doesn't pan out. I just don't see Biden, O'Malley or Sanders being that candidate. I personally love Webb, but I don't think he's getting much traction. Who would you like to see jump in this as an alternative to Hillary?

It's looking like the Dems may be the bigger "fools" because their second string is very thin like you said.

But the conservative fallacy is confusing quantity with quality. Huckabee, Santorum, Jindal, Perry, Graham, Pataki, Christy, Gilmore and Paul have absolutely zero chance of getting the nomination, and iCarly, Kasich, Carson and Cruz have near zero chance. You guys say Jeb! has no chance. So, there, 14 candidates eliminated. It's down to Mr. Trump, Walker and Rubio. Some depth.

You'll be up against some competition for Bloomberg. Trump may have temporarily patched up his differences with Ailes/Fox, but not with the big boss. He holds a grudge.

With Trump becoming very serious candidate, it’s time for next billionaire candidate, Mike Bloomberg to step into ring. Greatest mayor.

I fear Biden has early dementia....he has far too many gaffs, seems very lost at times. I know he just lost his son, which was tragic, but that too may have taken a toll on him. Why has the Obama administration kept him out of the media light for so long? He rarely has a reporter even within earshot. Not sure he is a good candidate and he will 82 when he leaves office. If Hillary sticks to her guns, the media will eventually back off and so will the White House and get behind her. Just the way I see it.
