Sovereign dislikes me in general. I was reminded of that today:

Correct. I’m not sure where people are getting the idea that beating the average unlocks a new tier of life expectancy like it’s a video game or this absurd “he’s still alive and only has a 5% of dying next year at his age because I just made that up” stat.

Wait, do you seriously think there aren’t stats that would suggest a 70 year old woman is less likely to die than a 76 or 78 year old man?

Else You Are Mad is the one that made the above 65 remark. Why are you go after the two commenters that made remarks about people in their late 70's? 

I’d feel better if Warren were VP.

I believe the point MB is making is that they are *all* way too fucking old, but as those 3 are the only ones who stand a chance in the next election, the youngest of them is the best choice, at least from an age standpoint.

If we include the best two candidates in that cut-off, it leaves Buttigieg and Harris. That’s not going to fly with our more leftist friends.

And?...Do you have a point you would care to elucidate?

Huh? Any mortality stats you look at will tell you she’s less likely to die, both because she’s younger, and because she’s a woman.

the institutional checks, as weakened as they may currently be, are still too strong for them to get away with mass murder.

Warren is 70. I can live with that. Bernie and Biden are 78 and 76 respectively.

This gives me an idea for a hilarious dead guy named Bernie movie.

And have a life expectancy that’s longer by five years (in the white category).  The difference in age and gender between Warren and Biden/Sanders is real and significant to this discussion.

The only thing I can figure about trump is that you don’t give a shit about any one but yourself, there’s way less strain on your heart.

Been saying it, and I’ll keep saying it, Bernie and Biden are too old.

“See, the Clintons and the DNC will kill whoever gets in their way!”

It would take a constitutional amendment, but no one above age of 65 should be able to run for their first term as president. 

Cue Trump’s tweets about his own perfect, healthy heart which many people say is the equivalent of a eighteen year-old’s. In fact, nine out of ten doctors say he’s the most perfect physical specimen they’ve ever seen.

His blood isn’t being evenly distributed throughout his body. Hypocrite.

Holy Shit, Splinter might explode!!
