    A problem for Democrats this year (with a proposed solution at the end) in this thread.

    Congratulations to any and all fans on my feed. A long time coming indeed, from Super Bowl IV (the 1969 season, last of the old American Football League) to today. Well done.

    Trump and Corruption: Super Bowl Edition! Of course Trump was going to throw a big Super Bowl bash at his Florida members-only golf club and stick the taxpayers - us - with the bill. has the details.

    But the country is in trouble right now; we need prudence as much as passion. has the best combination of vitality, ability and experience of the remaining Democratic candidates. I hope Sanders supporters will take this into consideration. [end]

    People who like Sanders' ideology would get much of what they admire from an Elizabeth Warren Presidency. Not everything, maybe not even everything they think is most important, but a lot. This doesn't speak to folks who are for Bernie just because he's Bernie. I know that.

    It's not even about replacing him with a better person. Politics in 2020 is about replacing Trump with someone who can repair the damage he's done, and sustain a course correction, for years. We're deceiving ourselves if we think a man nearing his ninth decade can do that.

    Part of our natural character as Americans is that while we generally recognize we'll die someday, we never think we'll grow old. In the words of The Rock, "it doesn't matter what you think." Politics this year is not just about beating Trump.

    Let’s not do that again. Whatever hard feelings & grievances get generated during the Democratic primaries aren’t worth leaving the Presidency to a man even worse than Bush, backed by Russian intelligence and committed to his own enrichment and that of his loathsome children.

    All I ask of the political revolution fans among Sanders supporters is that they commit now to supporting the eventual Democratic nominee. The one thing sure to get Trump re-elected is what gave America the George W. Bush Presidency: a third party candidacy from the left.

    Political revolutions aren’t really my thing, to be candid. From my point of view, we just had one in this country 244 years ago; why do we need another one so soon? But if you do want a candidate committed to revolution, Sanders is your guy. Go ahead and make your statement.

    I'll say here, to people supporting Sanders because they want a socialist revolution: knock yourselves out. He is the closest thing to a West European pacifist socialist we are likely to see seriously contending for a major party Presidential nomination.

    Biden’s ties to Barack Obama do not exempt him from the consequences of getting old. Neither does Bloomberg’s Behold My Wealth 2020 Winter Tour make him immune to the effects of time. Biden is familiar, Bloomberg can buy ads and endorsements. None of that matters.

    ....— but again, not with Sanders as the candidate. Now, the question might fairly be asked at this point: does the objection raised to the elderly Sanders apply also to Joe Biden and Mike Bloomberg? The answer is, of course it does.

    Excluding incumbent Presidents, two Democratic candidates have beaten younger Republican opponents to win the White House: one in 1912 and the other in 1856. Relative youth and vigor should be an advantage for the Democrats this year, as they have traditionally been....

    On the pressing subject of electability, I will say only one thing here. The Republican candidate this year is elderly, sedentary, fat, indolent, showing marked signs of cognitive decline; also the Democratic electorate skews younger. These facts represent opportunity,....

    Sanders is not going to reinvent himself approaching his 80th birthday. No one does. I appreciate the vigor he has shown in the campaign, making variations of the same speech over & over and talking to mostly sympathetic Democratic voters. The Presidency is a far heavier lift.

    I don’t think this is because, as Hillary Clinton was quoted as saying the other day, no one likes Bernie Sanders. It’s because Sanders has never had much interest. The consistency and purity in his record that attracts some younger voters is largely due to....
