I love Joe Biden & Warren...but Howard Dean....

But I sure wish Howard Dean would take another crack at getting the nomination in 2016. Contributions going to DFA in 2015 might be a good indicator...

Warren would make a fabulous VP and is young enough to run on her own later...

in 2024 she'll be 75. Which would make her the oldest President ever ... if elected.

Same age as Reagan when he was first elected. (Well ~4 months younger)


Age really shouldn't be an issue either way for her. She looks great and should be fine as long as she can hold up during the rigors of a modern Presidential campaign.

What a conundrum. All the best ones and some of the not so best ones don't have much of a chance if they don't get in '16....
