Not sure why we have 2 guys that are so old. Dont like either. Need someone around 55 years old. Everyone is trying to do what they believe is best for America and right now any candidate is 51% So anyone 55 years old I’ll take and roll the dice. I disagree with republicans and democrats. There are aspects of republicans i agree with. There are aspects of democrats i agree with. Am i the only one that feels this way? Why can’t we just have someone that’s super super moderate ? #elections
I like to think most people agree with you. Which exemplifies what is wrong with politics today. Every solution that seems to come out (regardless of the issue) is the "least bad" option, never the "best" option.
Rajesh you are on Visa. Calm down, you cant vote
Crazy how most people want to retire before 60 and we have 2 dinosaurs wanting more fame and power at 80s
Kamala Harris is 59 and Nikki Haley is 52. Close enough?
That would be amazing. A young moderate Democrat or Republican would have my vote in a heartbeat.
People say that but every time there are a bunch of them in an open primary they don’t really go anywhere. 2016 the governor of Maryland Martin O’Malley ran as a young moderate and instead the dem voters went apeshit for Bernie and Hillary. In the GOP primary you had Marco Rubio they were grooming and the voters instead were way more enamored with Trump (an old extremist) and Cruz (a younger extremist) 2020 you had the same shit. A whole bunch of dems under 60 ran and instead people coalesced behind Bernie and ancient socialist and Biden an ancient moderate This year no serious Republican is even bothering to challenge Trump because they know the voters love him and if they’re young they can just wait
Democrats went for Biden last time, relatively moderate compared to candidates like Bernie or Warren. Sadly no young moderate could break through. On the Republican side you do have plenty of moderates, but the Trump wing is now the majority (as evidenced by Haley’s performance).
Most of the people I have spoken to agree with you including myself. A moderate Republican or Democrat under the age of 60 would definitely vote for. So far I'm stuck with Biden because at least he surrounds himself with competent staff for the most part and Trump is a wacko.
Yeah sure. Biden's competent staff including Kamala Harris, Mayorkas, and diversity hires like this gem: https://youtu.be/5Fw1OJoRY-M The real reason you don't like Trump is because the news tells you he's evil and it's socially unacceptable to like him. Most people would support Trump's policies if they didn't know it was Trump.
No, it's based on what comes out of his own mouth. He's been a conman his entire life it's not anything new.
Biden is lesser evil than Trump. Biden may keep US in neutral gear for 4 years. Trump will reverse us decades.
What aspects of Republicans do you agree with?

I thought you have two old candidates in your interview pipeline and the post was very confusing. But to answer your question, Biden won the primaries because he could swing some white middle age voters his way and win. Hilary didn't and lost to Trump, Pete is too gay, etc. (Click to open this fully)
Actually the gays complained that Pete wasn’t gay enough. The remainder LBTQIA didn’t like the cis white male qualifiers.
It's a shame. Pete and his family are great. He may not have won yet, but he's young enough I could see him getting the candidacy in the future.
