Wishing Bernie a speedy recovery

Definitely, but this really should mean the end of his candidacy. For his sake, health-wise, I hope so.
I had concerns about his age (78) already....as I do with Biden (76) and even Warren (70).

And ad buys in Iowa (seen some unconfirmed reports of NH as well). I know if I was related to him I’d want him to withdraw from the race to try for a full recovery, it is hugely stressful.

Sanders seemed to be the healthiest of the guys, his energy on the trail frequently outpaced that of his younger aides, but this is a hell of a warning from his body that he is pushing things too far. He doesn’t seem like the tyoe of character who can “tone it down a bit”, part of his appeal really, know if he was my family member I’d want him to advocate from the sidelines instead.

Between age related and Ukraine concerns there is still time for Biden supporters to get a little worried and look for a centrist candidate alternative - Buttigieg and Booker seem most likely possibles especially if either do well in Iowa.

Yep. He has experienced the equivalent of a heart attack.

“Ukraine concerns”

sigh.

there are plenty of reasons not to vote for Biden - it’s a depressing indictment of the decline of facts and evidence that “ukraine concerns” are anywhere near being any of them.

My concerns on that front are MASSIVELY less with Warren than with the other two.

If I didn’t know Warren’s age I’d guess she was close to 2 decades younger.

If I’m that switched on and “spritely” in 32yrs I’ll be delighted.

Christ, if I was that switched on and spritely NOW I’d be pretty happy.

Agreed, certainly less worried about her, but she is still 70; 71 by the time she'd be president. I also think about the 2nd term as well. She'd be pushing 80 after 6-7 very stressful years.

Will also be interested to see what GOP says about Sanders after this with regard to not being in any shape to be POTUS.
Call me curious about another avenue of hypocrisy given Trump is a ticking time bomb for a stroke or MI.

They'll setttle on Harris.

He'd be better as a VP running mate for a younger candidate
