Governor Cuomo represents the people of New York state at present. Tens of thousands of jobs were killed in New York State. The fact that jobs may exist in a different state does not Mean that tens of thousands of jobs were not killed in New York State. This is a pretty simple concept. You could say if he was president of the united states that the lack of tax subsidy for Amazon would be a good thing. But if you were only representing the citizens of New York State it is not a good thing. Also responding to Bob claiming that Bernie Sanders is too old to be president. I wholeheartedly agree. I would say the same thing for Joe Biden and Donald Trump as well! |

The funny thing on age is the older people might care more. When Dole was running I remember Limbaugh bringing up some poll or something. Younger people did not care, older people his age did as they knew how much age wears you out. I used to feel that way about Bret Favre, who is less than a year older than me. I knew how my body felt and I had a normal, white-collar life. How did he do it. The President is a fink. |

Good to hear, though instead of the logic being it will not get thru congress to hear him say, "No, every slave is dead." He sounds more pragmatic than ideological. The President is a fink. |

Evenbob Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 146 Posts: 25010 | Peter ButtCrack is obsessed with his Gayness, he can't stop talking about it. "I’m from Indiana, I’m gay as a — I don’t know, think of something really gay — that’s how gay I am,” he said in an interview with TMZ’s Harvey Levin. America loves them some Gay guys who shove it in their faces at every opportunity. Not.. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

But how old will Bernie and Biden be if they win and are reelected. Bernie will be pushing 90. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Wizard Administrator Member since: Oct 23, 2012 Threads: 239 Posts: 6095 | I admit age is a factor with Bernie. It's not a deal breaker, but definitely a strike. I do think with age comes wisdom. That is why, I presume, judges to the Supreme Court are granted life terms. The older I get the more I see most issues as conflicting forces and trying to find an intelligent middle ground between them. At half my age I would have been more inclined to pick the extreme I liked better on any issue. I do acknowledge that dementia is a very real problem for the elderly. It comes on very slowly so it's hard to detect. Bernie seems sharp as a tack to me, at least for now, but you never know what is mental health will be like in 2024 or 2028. I am of the opinion Reagan started his mental decline somewhere in his second term. Knowledge is Good -- Emil Faber |
