Is there another politician in their 80s (or even 70s) who you think is an outlier in the same ways that Bernie is? Because I’m struggling to think of one.
Well, I’ve been only talking about Bernie, and not others.
Having said that, any professional politician who is as cognizant as Bernie, and could do the job, should be allowed to do the job. Not arbitrarily gated.
And please, don’t take my stance as one that does not want new and ‘fresh blood’ in Congress, in fact I would really love to see many more younger people run for office.
My point is just to be fair when judging someone capable of doing their job, not arbitrarily.
Bernie can do the job, and if you believe in his politics, it would be really good for the country if he did.
Don’t get me wrong - I think Bernie is great, and I agree: if there was another very old politician that gave me Bernie vibes, I’d probably support them too.

But there’s not. And that’s my entire point.
Fair enough.
