The press and Bernie Sanders (voters, democrat, Republican, president)

[68551]

I think I shall go mad if I hear one more reporter ask why young people would want to vote for a 74 year old for POTUS.....Really? Are you so thick headed to not realize that anyone handing our free college and work leave wouldn't be a shoe in for the youth vote?

The media hates Sanders, he is anti-establishment. They don't want him in office so he doesn't get the same air time or respect as the other candidates. For crying out loud, MSNBC gives Trump more attention than Sanders and he is a republican!!! All the more reason to put him in office, I enjoy pissing off the powers that be.

The political media likes to divide people. The youthful Obama received votes over the relic old man Mccain and his weird lady VP all because young people could relate to the hip Obama. The same goes when it was Obama V. Romney, what person under 30 would want to vote for an odd Mormon dude?

For the low information voters it is all about relating to the candidate.
Trump is a rich TV celebrity.
Hillary is like a mom.
Bernie is like a grandfather.
Cruz is like a odd uncle.

I do think Bernie is pushing it at 74, being President is a really stressful 24/7 job and it really ages people. Bernie is already old looking and by the time his service is up he will be a 78 year old mummy.

Still if we have to have a another Democrat I'd rather see Bernie then Shrillary.
For the record I think they are both a danger to America.
