Bernie is 76 right now, and will be 78 in 2020, which would make him the oldest candidate from a major party. What happens if 2020 comes and Bernie decides he's too old to run? Who is your backup choice?

Its honestly really dumb. Somehow, requiring someone to show that they're the person they say they are, which every civilized country does for elections, is racist. How it's racist I don't understand. Something dumb about how minorities are less likely to have a license or an ID because they don't have time to go to the DMV. About 87% of the adult population have a license. That other 13%? People who lost their license because of repeated DUIs, people who never got a license to begin with, and people who let their licenses expire and haven't gotten it renewed yet. But racist because reasons

Yep, for example, as part of the development deal for the new TD Garden in Boston, the development company was supposed to sponsor events at the TD Garden for Boston Public Schools. That was part of the contract. So would you consider that corruption, or community outreach? I mean, the development company never ended up following through with the events, so they messed up in that way, but that's another story.

I did what you said and I visited some foreign countries and smoked some weed. But apparently I shouldn't have admitted that on my security clearance application. I can't tell whether it was the trip to Egypt that screwed me, or that I told them I used to smoke weed but hadn't in 1.5 years, but one of them did.
So yeah, went from having a job offer with a government agency to getting that offer retracted.
