Dropping out as well. Plans to endorse Biden for nominee..

And now we are down to the Final 4.

Sanders, Warren, Biden, Bloomberg

Think Pete and Amy both like Biden and are maybe aiming to be his VP candidate. Don't know how much weight that will carry, but it is something to watch.

Biden at 77 is the youngest dood in the field.

The frontrunner was born before the Japanese bombed Pearl harbor.

Thought the Democratic Party was all about up and comers and specifically female and minority candidates.

Well a female is out, a young gay single man is out, the only Asian-American in the field bowed out early and the 2 main Black candidates were out in the fall.

Now we have a 70 year old female, a 77 year old former VP, a 78 year old Socialist and a 78 year old billionaire who is a Democratic Trump (In terms of money and a New Yorker)

So in other words, doesn't matter the party. It's mostly always going to be a field of old, white men. No matter the party.

Nitpicking, but Pete isn't single

Which is an aspect of Bernie's rise that's interesting, that it's the younger demographic that so fervently propelled him, a guy almost too old to be a boomer, forward.

Bernie's rise isn't political. It's religious.

Just like Trump's.

Yeah, just a misread on my part. But you get the general idea.

So you are saying someone will get the courage to answer the 100+ pages of “who you got”. Or we’re still waiting on more to drop out before we know what we want?

It's interesting that the Bernie Brigade yells at older Democrats and says that they're all just too conservative to vote for a "visionary" like Bernie, when the truth is that they all know just exactly how ill he looks and think he should have withdrawn after the heart attack.

It’s quite the paradox, Bernie’s popularity among youth contrasted with voters who are closer to his age.

Maybe Bernie wouldn’t look so ill if he started sporting a spray tan and a combover?

Uncle burnie is popular with the kid’s because he is promising them everything under the moon. Of course the children favor free tuition, free healthcare, free child care, fee living wage, erased student loans. The kiddies lap that $#it up. The adults know better.

With experience......
