Yeah, the age of candidates isn't really the problem here, it's that our leaders are stuck in old ideologies that voters are sick of. Like, Hakeem Jeffries' is in his 50s, but running his anti-union pro-political machine ass anywhere outside of New York would be a disaster.
I just want someone left wing >

Because of the dissatisfaction with the Dems and Reps, several news outlets have been claiming the USA needs a "third party" (usually with younger candidates).  However, we have more than three parties right now, and they offer younger candidates!  Here is a partial list (sorted alphabetically).  More info can be seen by Googling the name(s) below:  

American Independent  
Constitution Party  
Democratic  
Democratic Socialists  
Forward  
Green Party  
Independent  
Libertarian  
No Labels 
Peace and Freedom  
Reform  
Renew America
Republican  
Tea Party  

Each of those political parties claim to adhere to somewhat different philosophies.  The major difference, however, seems to be their funding.  The two major parties have significant funding.  The "wannabees" can't seem to get sufficient support.
So, the talk about "we need a third party" is really a complaint about the two major parties ... and those who espouse the "third party" seem to be unable to grasp the necessary fundamentals for significant recognition.  However, at least some of these third parties seem to be able to siphon votes from the major party that is most similar in goals, thus defeating their supposed purpose.
Botom line:
An increasing number of people want a third party, but have no idea or suggestions how to get a successful one. >

No 3rd party can mathematically exist until fptp voting system is abolished and replaced with ranked choice or a similar alternative.
Simple as that.  Change FPTP first, then you can start talking about 3rd parties >

Sure they can, they just need to get more votes. We've had a number of 3rd party candidates win in the US already. >

In the short term sure, but FPTP ensures that a 3rd party will never be viable long term.  It's game theory >

...is he trying to get Republicans elected in the next cycle? >


In 2022, dozens of former Republicans and Democrats created a new centrist-based party, called Forward. Some moderate presidential candidates could include Liz Cheney (R), Larry Hogan (R), David Jolly (R), John Kasich (R), Christine Todd Whitman (R) or Andrew Yang (I-diot).

Yes
e; I should mention, I took the liberty of adding those party identifiers in the parentheses since the author of editors here didn't think that information was necessary to include (also the part in brackets) >

Andrew Yang really had me fooled during the primary. I didn't scrutinize him enough. Never again. >

That’s certainly an opinion. Not a good one, but an opinion >

Biden has done an amazing job. Trump did a terrible job. They are not age related. Deceptive editing of clips try to paint Biden as confused etc. We know this is not true.
And with all democratic decisions, it is we the people who decide who to represent us. >


Biden is not senile
Biden has done an amazing job given the present political climate not only with the Republican party but also within the Democratic party
I'd prefer someone younger run
I'll happily and energetically vote for Biden again
Democrats have traditionally been horrible about controlling their own narrative as well as bogging themselves down on "cultural issues"
Democrats are the superior choice for economic issues. >


Democrats have traditionally been horrible about controlling their own narrative as well as bogging themselves down on "cultural issues"

Counter-point: Republican have their own media bubble whose whole job is to rapidly invent new "cultural issues" to get spun up about, it's impossible not to be overwhelmed by it.
Republicans would prefer genital checks before kids can use a bathroom but Democrats are framed as bogged down in "cultural issues" because they acknowledge trans people exist or that systemic racism exists.  Like most issues, the Democratic position is not characterized fairly. >

We need a LABOR PARTY >

This is what right wants dems to do.  Divide voters from Biden who has a rising approval rating with incumbent advantage with successful policy and midterm success.
We should not fall for their obvious traps. >

Lol, no. The incumbent advantage is huge.  We can have two new candidates in 2028. >

Cool story Biden wins 2024. >

Could we just get someone under fifty?  One of the biggest problems with our country is our elderly politicians that are always at least twenty years behind socially from the rest of society. >

This is the problem with people living longer and longer and also not working. Both US and Europe have this problem. Half the population not working, juveniles plus seniors. So, older people will be a drag on voting and change. Be like Brexit all the time. Old people retired and dying in a few years taking UK out of the EU against the dreams of working young voters. >

Fetterman FTW! >

Katie Porter FTW!
(I know I know, she going to Senate. But she’s so fucking awesome) >

Time to indict and prosecute Trump for all his crimes. >

DeSantis vs Harris in 2024. Both under 60. This would be fun! >

Until you get the results
