Biden: I want to thank Bernie Sanders and his supporters for their tireless energy and passion

[StarfishSaver]

“We share a common goal and together, we’ll defeat Donald Trump. We’ll defeat him together.”

Sanders: "We are winning the generational debate. While Joe Biden continues to do very well with older Americans, especially those people over 65, our campaign continues to win the vast majority of the votes of younger people ... Today, I say to the Democratic establishment, in order to win in the future, you need to win the voters who represent the future of our country ... You cannot simply be satisfied by winning the votes of people who are older ... Let me be very frank as to the questions I will be asking Joe."

1. And Sanders is not wrong Biden needs to win over young people

or we will be toast in the general.

2. Then Bernie should drop out and encourage young people to vote for Biden

Pretty simple.

5. No way!

Good grief this is not a game. Let’s see how Biden does in the debate.

7. Yes, if Biden's as strong as his supporters claim, why the fear of a one-on-one debate with Bernie?

Bernie/Elizabeth or Elizabeth/Bernie 2020!!
Either way, they're stronger together & can't be bought!!
Jump on the Bernie Bandwagon & join the revolution!!

11. Let's see what BS does in the debate.

10. Why didn't the "young people" show up to vote for BS?

Biden got the overwhelming Black Vote and Suburban women according to the polls.

3. Bernie has no path to the WH now unless he goes scorched earth on Biden

he will then lose the commie castro party ticket and we will have Trump for 4 more years.
bernie better go into a lockdown in a missile silo if he wants to escape the hate he will generate against him and his cause.

Bernie has an airhead on MSNBC now talking about taking Florida. Is she nuts?

4. It is

crap like this is the exactly the reason I can't get behind Sanders. He burnt us Hillary voters with his stubborn sore loser prank when he set out while damaging our party. Why don't he run as a Repuk since they are who he is helping with this kind of nonsense. If Joe loses, he will be more hated than he already is. I barely pay him attention as it is. If I were Joe, I would go on and get my VP and get this party stated. Majority rules. If Bernie think this will endure him to out party(real Democratic party) he is clearly wrong.I am so sick of this man. He needs to bow out and maybe he would get an important spot in the cabinet.

6. Joe: classy, asking people to join together to defeat Trump

Bernie: Joe better answer my questions or else.

8. Thankfully Biden is not taking advice from some people on DU

And messaging exactly the way he is.

[Cha]

9. Biden is his own person.. why would he

take advice from random strangers?

12. You left out the part where Bernie defines "younger people" as anyone younger than 50.

Specifically, he included not just those in their 20s but those in their 30s and 40s.

So riddle me this: how can he be winning "a vast majority" of the votes of those in their 20s, 30s, and 40s, and still lose by a vast majority of all of the votes cast?
