Bernie Sanders Is Running for President Again

It has a lot to do with the discussion when the average lifespan of a U.S. male is 79 and people generally vote for Presidents, not VPs.

It also has a lot to do with it when the current 72 year old President shows -- at the very least, arguable -- signs of cognitive decline, and the oldest President ever also showed similar signs towards the end of his term. There are exceptions, but these cases are representative of the typical case, not the exceptional case [1]

Stress is a factor in the above.

Nuclear weapon deployment (not even war) remains one of the greatest threats to civilization and would likely impact another (climate change). The U.S. President must be able to make a fast & sharp decision on this matter should the need arise (though I have to say, Bernie seems likely to make the right choice, which is always "do not launch")

[1] “…most abilities tend to peak in early midlife, plateau until the late fifties or sixties, and then show decline, initially at a slow pace, but accelerating as the late seventies are reached.” (Schaie, 1989).

If he or she dies while in the office, none of the goals would be achieved. I am not even talking about the mainstream media, which would tear the old man apart, because of his age. It is not like I am discoaraging you to vote for Bernie, but it is that he is not gonna win, period. So you need to chose the closest to Bernie and vote.
