Bernie is really fucking old. He can't leave the door open forever.

9. AOC + Mayor Pete equals a Republican elected in 2028.

There are even Democrats and Independents who would not vote for that ticket.

Why is it that as Democrats when we love a candidate that we are blind to the distinct possibility that the nation simply would never elect them as president and vice president? After our first 2 female candidates lose to Trump, what could possibly go wrong with a 3rd, especially paired with a gay male (who is absolutely qualified but unelectable at this time and your wishing it were so doesn't make it happen.)
That is not an electable ticket in a year when we so desperately need a Democrat to win.

It's as my sig reads: "I'm not a member of any organized political party. I am a Democrat."
