2. No, not yet.

We are eight months away from the earliest primary so I'm willing to see what happens with the debates and afterwards. There are three major candidates that are over 65 years old and while I don't wish misfortune on any of them, things do happen that could affect the primary race.

9. OK, so we have Biden who is now 77 and Bernie who is now 78.

Who is the third? Somehow I'm not thinking that person is a major candidate.

12. Elizabeth Warren will be 70 next month.

That doesn't change the fact that she is amazing. She is high on my list of possible candidates to vote for in the primaries.

John Hickenlooper and Jay Inslee are 67 and 68 years old as well.

13. Warren is a major candidate

She will be 70 in June. But she is so vibrant and energetic it's hard to believe.

14. Yeah, I didn't really consider Warren part of that group. For sure, she'll be 70,

but she's a very young 70. Just like Biden is a young 77 and Trump is an old 72.

I like Mayor Pete, but I'd support Warren in a heartbeat. She's absolutely brilliant.

And Biden, well I am a bit to his left, but I would have no trouble supporting him either.

5. Since MJ Hegar is running against Cornyn

Beto will NOT be dropping out and running for Senate.

See [link:https://www.democraticunderground.com/1287133162|] to understand why it's dumb to try to minimize him.
