I can’t think of many reasons to cast my vote for an 80 year old.

 

Biden is certainly not an exception worthy of reconsidering that stance.

He won handily last election despite the doom and gloom over inflation, covid and a looming hard landing. Now, the economy is doing fine with booming stock prices, low unemployment and the possibility of there not even being a recession. The Republicans can't find an angle of attack so resort to culture wars to try to get the job done. Biden will win easily.

Unfortunately it looks like they will get their party's nominations. Which means there will most likely be no alternatives.

people could always run as an independent. that would require both sides of the political spectrum to open their eyes and compromise.

That's the unfortunate problem with a two party system. 

An independent third party candidate  is essentially a suicide  pact  between two of the three candidates who's politics lean on the same direction. One is sure to take away votes from the other to the benefit of the third. 

So no .

IMO people can not run as independents without cause harm to their cause. A third party candidate with conservative leaning will insure a progressive win, and a third party with progressive leaning progressive will insure a conservative winn.

things won't change unless the mindset of people change. that exact same mindset you are mentioning here. it's quite sad. 400 million people and b1 and b2 are the best choices given to the most powerful nation on earth.

 

all seems right to me.

Who hasn't tripped in life? Even young people trip. Does catching your foot in a cable or loose pavement tile mean you are incompetent? Next we will hear that tripping, or any physical handicap, makes one unfit to lead.

Biden falls at graduation ceremony

Some pundits have surmised that the President exited the wrong side of the platform—where they generally leave the teleprompter sandbags.  And Biden has a habit of confusion before, during and after a speech.

I guess Joe was confused because the Easter Bunny wasn't there to tell him where to go.

Nice deflection. No evidence other than in the fevered dreams of hyperventilating anti-Trumpers.

The proof is in the pudding. Many of his actions strongly benefited Putin and at least once he had to be overruled by the senate super majority on arms to Ukraine.

Recommended viewing for those piling on Biden as being senile and infirm. The video is not biased, it makes no commentary at all.

Right, so Trump stumbled as well and that means Biden isn't infirm and doesn't fall over often .

   I cannot see  the sense in that .

Trump stumbled which means Biden is fit and healthy ?

Again the "but Trump...." defence in action. The video showed exactly ONE time that Trump stutter-stepped. The rest were decontextualized nonsense.   The shot of Trump feeding fish with Abe of Japan is pure crap.  Abe did the same thing BEFORE Trump did and encouraged him to follow suit.  Kind of shows how much credence to put into the rest of what was shown.

Even if you are right and some actions "strongly benefited Putin", that is not the same as "getting his orders from Putin".  You can do better. 

Think of Biden as a proxy for the US and the sandbag as a proxy for Ukraine. Lesson never learned: Provoke a war with another superpower and you fall with a thud on your face.

No, it just means everybody piling on Biden is being hypocritical. But everybody already knew that.

I can see him in the office tripping and falling on to the big red button

"He also said he trusted Russian intelligence more than his own. He's known to have extensive business dealing with Russian oligarchs. No shortage of smoke there.

Pretty sure I didn't react when Trump stumbled. There was nobody to compare him against so I would not have done so.

Not at the time. Only now in response to all those hypocrites piling on Biden for tripping over a sandbag and his speech impediment.
