No Biden

Sorry, but I think Biden is too old to run for president in 2020.

(I'm old too so I know what I'm talking about.)

Plus, he has been a tool for the evil credit card industry. Most credit card companies are based in Delaware, and he represented them for decades as Senator from Delaware.

Can't we pass the torch to a new generation of Democratic leaders?

1. Has Biden said he's running? Why the pre-emptive strike to bash a Democrat?

A bunch of people will run, pick out one you like and support him or her. There is no reason to bash democrats.

3. Anyone can run. Who wins the primaries is all that matters.

The voters will decide, just as they did in 2016 and in other presidential election years.

....Biden had little if anything to do with them.

But being 74 years old he's bashable, I guess.

"Sorry, but I think Biden is too old to run for president in 2020..."

What is the precise age of "too old", and on what objective measure is that based on (as you allegedly know what you're talking about)?

As you informally endorsed McAuliffe for VA Gov. last week, we know the age is sixty or less, but it yet does beg my original question.
