“The status quo will not sustain us. I really mean it. It can't happen. If we unite this country, think about it, there's not a damn thing we can't do," Biden added, drawing applause.

How much you wanna bet that there is a quote from Biden being critical of Reagan’s age in 1984.

What's the problem? He chooses to identify as an unemployed 20 year old kid living in his mom's wife's basement. "I mean, hey man" he is unemployed.

Rachel Dolezal, Shaun "Talcum X" King, Bruce Jenner, and now Joe "20 something" Biden. Join the crazy club!

Biden needs the right slogan: “almost as young as Donald Trump.”

Does Joe ever actually say something? Everything I hear from him is just pablum. He’s such an empty suit.

He’s right to reject the “old guy” image; so is Sanders. They’re not old guys. In the demwit universe, they’re old WHITE guys who need to just get lost.

Joe doesn’t think he’s old because he still gets it up.....but only around children.

=====================================

I guess his wife makes "other plans."
