    This is an interesting -- Biden has made no effort to reach out to young people. In that sense, he's very different than Obama & Clinton.https://twitter.com/jonfavs/status/1221091496415203328 …

    I will say, nearly every campaign has at least made an effort to reach out to the constituencies that aren’t their natural strength, with the exception of Biden’s. It shows. pic.twitter.com/cMmJkOs3ah

        Biden is very much a man of the past.

        Probably the biggest downside risk to him in the general. The Ukraine noise is probably a wash at this point. MSM has stopped with the "questions linger" stories.

        Sanders is one thing but how did Obama "reach out" to young people? They just adored him from the start. It was a constituency that came to him with very little effort. And as the current primary has shown, that group doesn't even align with him on policy. They just liked him

        Lol, young people aligned with him on policy then. Those under 30 12 years ago are no longer under 30 now. Being against the Iraq war from the start was the biggest policy difference then. Only Kucinich was to his left, I believe.

        Seems like political suicide for Democrats to nominate a candidate who is close to single digits with young voters.

        Must we conclude that Biden is too senile to know what is going on AND that his staff are self-conscious DNC spoilers who know he can't win?

        He's still campaigning in 1988, so in his mind "young" people were probably born around 1965.

        The only thing he has to offer the youth is contempt and they've got enough of that already.

        I would say that Biden has gone farther than that—he’s made telling off young voters a core part of his brand.

        The side of Biden's bus is going to get an extra large "OK Boomer!" sign in Jeb! font.
