...and Amy ('bad boss')... and Kamala ('questionable ruling record')... and OMG BETO was a high school hacker..and he LOST.....Swallwell ( 'bad hair in high school')...Warren ( 'omg that NA thing')...Beurigaga ( 'well we cant even pronounce his name and hes ONLY been mayor of a small town')...and Kristen ( that Al thing) ....so no i dont think BS has had more negative press than others. They have all been dumped on. And to the point.. i think they have ALL been dumped on too much....and for really insignificant things. But hes got a professional history the others dont have so there are more things to focus on.

Any of our candidates would do a GREAT job... they are all highly qualified and who ever gets the Dem nom will be THE person i vote for.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden

So, why's Bernie bein bashed incessantly for EVERYTHING he's done, while other candidates are not? InAbLuEsTaTe Mar 2019 #3

Because he's running for President. And it's not "bashing." MineralMan Mar 2019 #4

OK, so long as we're usin the SAME standard for ALL candidates... fine, that's reasonable. InAbLuEsTaTe Mar 2019 #7

We'll see. Once he declares his candidacy. MineralMan Mar 2019 #55

I don't think age is a factor when it comes to Joe Biden. Like Bernie, he still's gotta lotta energy InAbLuEsTaTe Mar 2019 #62

No, I think Mineral Man made it clear that it IS vetting. InAbLuEsTaTe Mar 2019 #28

Yes, it is "vetting." And this is the time to do it. MineralMan Mar 2019 #31

To the contrary MM... I'm AGREEING with you!! I even commend you for your position on vetting. InAbLuEsTaTe Mar 2019 #32
