U.S. presidential candidate Sanders given clean bill of health after October heart attack


Recommended Posts

With the age of the frontrunners it is vitally important for voters to consider the running mate as the potential to have to step up from VP is high. I include Don in this.

Sanders is already older than Trump will be when he leaves office in 2025. Let that sink in for a minute and ask yourself what is the Democratic party doing?

His chances of winning are about the same as having a democratic elections in N. Korea...

A clean bill of health after a heart attack several weeks prior? Give me a break. 

Yeah, because we all know that medical science does not work. In the light of full transparency I confess to having had heart issues fixed in the past. Marathon? No. My ability to use my mind, travel freely? Not an issue.

Who really knows in politics, 10 years ago is was unheard of to think that a black guy rumoured to be a closet muslim, will be a US president, and then comes Trump, in a class of his own, so judging by the above, a geezer socialist jew with one leg in the grave is not a far fetched scenario at all...

There's a difference though. It was media that didn't believe Donald could win, but his party supported him nonetheless. In Bernie's case it was his party (well sort of, as he's democrat aligned but officially independent) that terminated his campaign and I bet they'll do it again. It was said in 2016 that he would have beaten Trump by 10+ percentage point, vs. Hillary who was actually projected to lose before media tried to convince everyone the opposite, which (in my opinion) contributed to his winning by energising his voters (or rather those who couldn't stand Hillary) and making her voters too lazy to get up and vote thinking she'd win anyway.

IMHO I see some hint that the media might be recognizing that Sander’s supporters are every bit as dedicated as Trump supporters for this election. For myself, as a registered Democrat, I voted for neither Clinton nor Trump thinking that neither earned my vote. The Democrats are again faced with supporting more of the same (more of the policies of the last 30-45 years that has brought us to the current debacle). I agree with the fact you pointed out, many did not bother to vote. My reading on this, however, attributes this to some being lazy but a goodly number simply being disaffected seeing the choice they were given in 2016. It continues to amaze that too many of the working middle class refuse to see that betting on The Donald was a poor, if understandable choice and not recognizing that Sander’s policies address the very issue that Is at the core of their justified frustration/anger.

Bernie iQ at 119 which is high compare to Trump’s 78 is enough reason for him to start kicking his hind.

 

one would think with that iq he'd have worked on diminishing that full on thick ny brooklyn accent.

U.S. Senator Bernie Sanders passed a stress test this month

Yes but if they had conducted a brain scan it would have shown to be flat lined.
