1. Sorry for his passing. But are there no younger folks in the DEM party?

Do they not know how to raise, train, support their successors? Bloody crutch, I'm old but I taught because I thought. believed, knew that we always need the 'next generation' to be capable and ready to lead. What are these old fu*kers afraid of, why do they not know they are "only temporarily able"?

Is it greed, fear of death, fear of loss of power, something else?

My grandfather always said, "no one gets out of this alive", he accepted the temporal existence, understood it, and id not stand in the way of others who would come after. He was smarter than 90% of the f*cking idiots we currently have running the country at all levels of government.
