In reply to the discussion: Biden mum on running for second term if elected [View all]Historic NY
(40,092 posts)17. FTR all aneurysms are near fatal....
in 1988 more so than now. Since its doesn't say which I will assume based on the recoup time its was probably Triple AAA's. I was monitored for 10 yrs before the Dr's said it was time . They said the longer the wait the better the chance with new techniques. The old days they had to gut you to get to the artery weakness, it took months and rehab to get back to normal. I was on the table for 6 hours. It took a couple of weeks until I was feeling better. I still have to be monitored at least once a year. I had my gall bladder out at 28.
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden

Joe is smarter than that... why not commit to a second term? Under the assumption that he's healthy

Excellent point. Why didn't Biden just say of course he would run for a 2nd term?

"You" didn't see my response to HeartlandProgressive either, yet you quoted it precisely

So you can't post what I "quoted precisely" at all then? It's all about a one word typo? lol

Sanders' sudden heart attack is one reason I feel Biden is also a risk
