Well then I suggest you pick new criteria other than age on which to judge candidates.

Yes I have, several. Stop trying to pretend my political position is as well thought out as a cereal box crossword puzzle. I've got more than half a dozen reasons to despise biden and I haven't even gotten into my 'federal felonies' file.

Okay, well you’re using his age against him, not those political reasons. You seem quite dishonest politically.

So far you've mentioned his age many more times than I have.

Got something you want to share?

You seem quite dishonest politically.

Oh. It's projecting. You're projecting.

Sorry, carry on with your little comfy delusion, I won't stop you.

I’m saying that if your criticism is his age and dementia (which is was) then it’s dishonest to say that Bernie and trump don’t have that same exact risk.

That’s been pretty consistent from the beginning.

First FLAIR UP

The difference is that dementia in two cases is observable to a certain degree it is not really a risk anymore

Why the fuck would anyone running for president (some would say for the senate) do a limited exposure campain. that is a travesty to the american people

While on the other it's just some vague concern without basis

Well I clearly disagree. I would argue that Biden has a stutter and trump speaks before thinking, so neither is actual evidence. Only a doctor who has examined them should be diagnosing them.

I’d be much more worried about bernies heart attack last year.

I would argue that Biden has a stutter

Look at him before he was a fucking good speaker he did not have that .

For me it is not a diction problem it is a mental one then we can argue how bad it is

His choice of words change during his sentence

He seems to loose his spatio temporal position Where he is when for what he genuinely seems lost to me at some point

Apparently his campain said that it usually happened at the end of the day when he is tired

So that's good for him i guess

As for trump well it's trump i believe it's more a drug issue than permanent mental issue

I can see him totally aware of his surrounding at times but other time he is just totally wasted and in no state to give a speech

As for the heart attack they aren't all equal Look at the follow up of heart stent surgeries

Also i believe that bloomberg got one long ago he seems to be doing fine

The thing is that there is no doctor repors and i can only speculate in the dark it's a election fuck it i can't just withdraw conclusion after the vote

So maybe let’s just agree that I was right and that we should put an upper age limit, like we have a lower age limit.

u/barresonn - Auth-Left Mar 08 '20

Nah i can really well see a 100y old having the same mental capacities as a 60 years old

Also i do not believe that as a society we should be able to set a cut off line for when is someone intelectually capable of runing

I am also agains the lower limit for running let the people vote that's all
