I love both Joe and Bernie, but they are both old
and it shows. They are also both products of their
generation, and that also shows.

A decade back, Joe would have 'wiped the floor' with
Trump in a debate. But no longer. He hadn't lost
a step, but a half dozen steps for sharpness in a debate.

And Bernie sometimes (unknowingly I believe) falls back
into his very white upbringing and defaults to the outdated
idea of 'white male leadership'. He is usually very open
to other candidates of races and genders, but I think sometimes
he unwittingly falls back to what he was raised with. It's a
generational thing.

It is time to FINALLY pry the reins of "leadership" out of the Boomers
hands and pass it on to younger(?) generations (I'm GenX and almost 60!).

Indeed it is far past time! Let younger and more culturally and racially
diverse generations take the reigns, and let them stand in stark contrast
to the largely 'whites only' party of the GOP.
