      You are way overblown on what happened.

      Bernie's heart did not give out. He did have a blockage and it was remedied.

      When this happens to people, there are basically two cases related to the heart:

      One, damage was done. Heart is weakened, or some how compromised.

      The other case is no damage was done.

      Typically, the no damage case is the outcome of a stent when the blockage is caught early and is well addressed.

      That is what happened with Bernie. His heart is fine.

      Had he pressed on, damage could have been done.

      Do you know people who have had these things done? I do. And the outcomes are generally good. Many have more energy than they did prior.

      One usually follows a blockage up with diet changes and perhaps meds to further reduce build ups.

      Now, if we want to play fun games, what happens when Biden forgets what he is doing...

      :D

        I am honest. The risks are well worth the rewards.

        Those other people are either not sufficiently developed politically to make a serious run, or are all about the same politics that got us here.

        Bernie is organizing, the others are selling.

        Big difference. We are not just electing Bernie. We are bringing a movement into the process. Benefits will outlast Bernie.

        I did not dispute anything. Bernie is in great health and that event did not change things very much.

        Given you have medical understanding, you know full well the range of possible outcomes ranges from minor league (Bernie) to profound.

        All the right things were done in a timely way. He just is not significantly impacted.

          The guy who got 45 percent of delegates against Clinton and what was likely one of the worlds better political machines?

          Bernie would have won in 2016, and he has an excellent shot at it this year.

          I get it, you aren't about Bernie. This isn't really about you though.

          It is all about the massive and growing number of people who are.

          :D

            I wish Bernie all the best, but he is nothing but a sideshow.

            That expression is extremely likely to be associated with a more basic sentiment not well aligned with, "all the best."

            Who are you kidding?

            That was historic, just as the campaign and movement are today.

            Not only do I believe, I feel the others have nothing but the same failed policy and leadership that got us here.

            Finally, the others are extremely likely to lose.

            That is because that have nothing but the same failed politics.

            You should update your rhetoric. Accomplishments are easy to find and numerous. Some are happening as you read this.
