Bernie Sanders, 80, has not ruled out running for President AGAIN

The 80-year-old Sen. Bernie Sanders has not ruled out running for president in 2024, should President Joe Biden not seek re-election.

The Washington Post reported Wednesday that Sanders' 2020 Campaign Manager Faiz Shakir wrote a memo telling allies that the Vermont progressive would consider a third bid for the White House.

'In the event of an open 2024 Democratic presidential primary, Sen. Sanders has not ruled out another run for president, so we advise that you answer any questions about 2024 with that in mind,' Shakir wrote.

The 79-year-old Biden has long said he'll run for re-election - though recent polling showed about one-in-five Americans were doubtful he'd complete his first term.

1. I love Bernie, but no

Two bites at the apple is enough. Even if I like his politics, we need to start developing our bench. I want to see more retirements in the next five years, not fewer.

4. Oh, dear lord no.

It's considered in bad taste here to suggest that some of the Dem party politicians who are 80 or older really ought to consider retiring, but there really is such a thing as too old.

I was a huge supporter of Bernie the first time, and I'm still rather sorry he didn't get the nomination, but his time has come and gone.

5. I think...

... he helped both Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden. Hopefully, some older and more progressive candidates will help Joe get the independent wishy-washy "center" voters in 2024.

25. Like he did the last two times he ran?

I'm genuinely curious to hear why you think Sanders would "win easily" in 2024.

Defeatist, counterrevolutionary talk like that could get you sent to the gulag FEMA Camp for "wrongthink correction" and "goodthink training", Comrade...

Hillary hasn't NOT thought about it since she was about three years old.

     Sooner than that, if the Clinton Death Squad is activated.

What do you want to bet that if he does run, he'll lament how evil it is for DeSantis to punish a corporation like Disney, and that he's punishing them for speech?

Well I'm certainly feeling the Bern - the infighting at the DUmp would be great fun.

Bernie looking for a fourth house this time? Possibly in sunny Florida?

That would be my guess.
