The VP pick will essentially be president if one of the walking dead candidates actually win.


focus on the VP picks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That's exactly why I've been saying Hillary must be hovering over the idea of, (like a turkey buzzard over roadkill), trying to get one of those old coots to have her as their VP.

I sometimes wonder if there should be a maximum age to serve as president as well as the current minimum age. It is a stressful job.

Of the over 70 crowd, by appearances (since I don't know their medical records), Warren seems to be the healthiest one. I think she knows this and plays this up when she does her "run on stage" thing that I've seen on the news. Then again, women tend to live longer than men. So maybe her being a woman helps with that. Trump and Bloomberg are tied for runner up on healthy appearances. They don't seem particular spry, but they don't seem to be breaking down either. I think Sanders and Biden are tied for third. While Sanders is aged physically being hunched over and having just had a heart attack, Biden seems to have aged mentally. He can do a prepared speech well, but doesn't seem to be able to think quick on his feet at the debates.

If you mean William Henry Harrison, he died in office! In fact he had the shortest presidency of all time.

Can't believe you would even mention those two! They prove my point, not yours!

Furthermore, Trump's father suffered from dementia, so Trump himself is at high risk of it, if he already doesn't have it.

Trump is more energetic than any President in history, so no chance of a maximum age being enforced.
And the Democrats ages don't matter, since they're only candidates, not Presidents....

When you avoid those health hazards, you can eat junk food and remain at the top of your game.
Trump is more energized now than Obama was in 2008!

Obesity is an easy target and liberals love low hanging fruit. Trump can run circles around every one of the democratic candidates. People who have nothing going for them tend to focus on appearances.

hmm, 2016 Bernie against illegal immigration and for strong border security because he knew you cannot provide free health care and education and have open borders. He also knew illegal immigrants are most detrimental to the low end workers as they repress wages and those low wages benefit the upper class and business. Today Bernie is open borders free healthcare too illegals. A very different Bernie who wants every left wing voter he can get.

Do you think this will continue to get overlooked?? What he most needs is for Bloomberg or Trump to have a heart attack or stroke between now and June or November.......so that Bernie will look ok in comparison. But those things are very unlikely to happen.
It's laughable when he says things like how he will stand up to Putin and end any election meddling. I'm suppose to believe this old man will be tough against foreign leaders yet he bowed down and let Hilary run all over him.

Exactly.
Vanity is the laziest pastime.
