Not sure why no one has brought this up about Bernie.

[rgbecker]

Does Bernie Sanders even know how to play Golf????

He certainly won't fit in, just as They have been saying. Doesn't get along with anyone. Isn't a team player.

But what about Golf? How will he be spending his weekends?

Why hasn't this come up on the DU?

[crazytown]

1. Oh noes!

Not ready for prime time.

[underpants]

2. He doesn't strike as the golfing type

Probably spends his time reading books.

3. from 2020 on no Democratic present should play golf!

Golf is a pesticide and water wasting disaster. At a time when we are facing climate change disaster golf sends the wrong message and actually promotes wrong behavior.

30. I took up golf at age 58

Because I was having fainting spells every morning at work. And my heart would race. And when I ate any type of meat in a restaurant, I got chest pains. So I quit my really good job at a national research lab and quit working at age 57.
Moved to a cheap area to live with no income until age 62 with social security.

Anyway joined a cheap golf club in WA state and began playing 5 days a week , 9 holes for a few months until I got stronger and do 18 holes once in a while. After 4 months I was walking 18 holes 5 times a week. Best part was 4.5 hours of walking on green grass, with trees and water ponds and sunshine, in the company of 3 cheerful golfers, without getting bored for a minute.

To make a long story short, now I am 79, my chest pains and fainting spells are a distant memory, even my hip joint pain is gone. golf literally saved my life. There is no other form of exercise I could have done for 4.5 hours 5 times a week without going insane and bored out of my mind.

I am looking forward to breaking my age .. before the body gives out. Very rarely achieved!

4. He does, but he always has trouble when he gets to the windmill

[Honeycombe8]

10. Just as well, since windmills cause cancer.

28. Well done. n/t

27. This and the following post gave me something to smile about

while I shut down and turn in.

I hear that Trump golf courses are pretty popular with people who campaigned on the promise of vacationing more and golfing more than Obama.

6. Congratulations

You win the most irrelevant post of day award.

7. He played softball. He also opposed gun control. Folks say that is just supporting his constituents.

18. That's a good pic of Bernie.

Thanks Hoyt.

[rgbecker]

19. Great move! Going after the softball players' vote.

Must be thousands across the country.

I'd trust a softball player over a golfer any day. Takes teamwork, Patience and in my league, everyone gets to play...ability be damned. Everyone has a equal opportunity to excel.

LOL. Thanks for the pic.

8. I would be more for him if he plays pickleball instead. :)

Golf is so expensive, and it's an individual game. Pickleball is cheap and a team sport!

[JustABozoOnThisBus]

17. Pickleball is very loud and annoying.

Some would agree the sport would be perfect for Bernie.

Trump would not like pickleball, it's too difficult to cheat.

[question everything]

9. Does he have a dog? Ever has one? Or a kitty?

I think that Whiny Donny is the first occupant of the White House with no pets.

Oh, I know. Goes with a spur bone.. (or something)

[Honeycombe8]

11. He never mentions a dog. I wonder...does he have one? nt

[MustLoveBeagles]

16. I'm glad he doesn't have any pets

No animal deserves the horror of living with him.

Edit: I'm referring to Trump in this post not Bernie. Sorry about that.

[question everything]

20. Oohh, that's cruel. But it is not as if he was generous to his first wife

or to his son who recently ran for office.

[MustLoveBeagles]

22. I was referring to Trump

Sorry I didn't make that more clear in my post. I have my issues with Bernie, but as far as I know he isn't cruel to animals.

[question everything]

23. LOL, sorry

[MustLoveBeagles]

25. No worries

[progree]

31. Your #16

was alerted on, but I figured it out

[MustLoveBeagles]

32. Uh oh

Thanks for letting me know. I'll have to be more careful from now on. I'll edit my original post.

12. You can buy branded golf balls... not official merchandise.

13. Bernie is excellent at golf

he's most adept at getting birdies.




Thanks for the thread rgbecker.

14. The proletariat doesn't play bourgeois sports

[appalachiablue]

21. B.ball and he's good

[NastyRiffraff]

24. Don't know, don't care

if Bernie Sanders or any candidate plays golf. Personally I don't like the game, but to each his or her own. Bernie can play tiddlywinks for all I care. Trust me, I don't lose sleep wondering what Sanders does in his spare time.

[InAbLuEsTaTe]

26. It's an outrage!!

Bernie & Elizabeth 2020!!!
Welcome to the revolution!!!

[Doreen]

29. I guess we need to send him to trump for

a couple of weeks to learn golf from the best.
