conix, Yeah, my non-citizen status, yet another failed slogan of yours which others have discarded as they saw the invalidity of it. Bottom line you
voted for a candidate who was clearly not fit for the presidency. Twice. Yours why and wherefores are meaningless rationalizations by you.

"I will bet that you can post that Biden at 80 post twenty times and it still would not change the facts.
Joe is infirm in his mental and physical state. You know it. I know it. The Democrat Party knows it. "

So many of your positions are so wrong-headed and bad for any country's health you are the last person to tell anyone what
they know. God knows why you would see yourself more qualified to comment on Biden's fitness than his very own doctor.

No doubt public perception of Biden is a problem for Democrats, however if he is the candidate i would vote for Joe for the same reasons so many others would. Slips and stumbles aside he is doing a good job in the presidency. That should be the key consideration in every voters mind. And Biden does not write his own medical report as the idiot you voted for twice allegedly did.

Biden’s mental sharpness and physical health doubted, Post-ABC poll shows

Though the incumbent, 80, and former president Donald Trump, 76, are close in age, the poll reveals strikingly different views about their capabilities

“Because I have acquired a hell of a lot of wisdom and know more than the vast majority of people,” Biden said .. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2023/05/06/president-biden-msnbc-age/?itid=lk_inline_manual_11 .. in an interview with MSNBC broadcast Friday, when asked why he is the right person for the job at his age. “And I’m more experienced than anybody that’s ever run for the office. And I think I’ve proven myself to be honorable as well as also effective.”

After Biden’s routine annual physical earlier this year, his doctor wrote in a memo .. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2023/02/16/biden-physical-exam/?itid=lk_inline_manual_26 .. that he is a “healthy, vigorous, 80-year-old male who is fit to successfully execute duties of the presidency.” Biden’s physician, Kevin C. O’Connor, noted that Biden underwent an “extremely detailed neurologic exam” that did not find any signs of neurological disorders such as stroke, multiple sclerosis or Parkinson’s disease.

The physicians who treated Trump while he was in the White House released limited information about his medical records. Trump’s doctors concealed major details about his bout with covid-19 in 2020, making his condition seem far less serious than it was at the time. He has famously avoided exercise with the exception of golf, though he often uses a golf cart instead of walking.

His annual medical reports revealed that he was at risk of cardiovascular disease. A June 2020 report from Trump’s physician, Sean P. Conley, showed that he was medically obese at 244 pounds with a body mass index of 30.

While Trump has some major hurdles to overcome in winning back voters’ trust and demonstrating an ability to expand beyond his base, the trend line in Americans’ views of Biden’s mental agility over the past few years stands out as a clear warning sign for his 2024 campaign.

In May 2020, shortly before Biden clinched the Democratic nomination, about half of Americans (51 percent) said he had the mental sharpness to serve effectively as president, but that number slid to 40 percent in 2022 and 32 percent in the latest Post-ABC poll.

“I don’t think [Biden] has the mental capacity to be president,” said an independent Oklahoma voter named Andrea, who supported Biden in 2020 and participated in the poll but did not want to share her last name. She said she would not back Trump if he becomes the Republican nominee and is leaning toward Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the anti-vaccine advocate and environmental lawyer who is the son of former attorney general Robert Kennedy.

[OUCH!]

The share of Americans who say Biden lacks the mental sharpness to be an effective president (63 percent) is nearly identical to the portion who say he does not have the physical health to serve effectively in the job (62 percent).

It is possible that age could become a contrast in a general election. Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, who is running second behind Trump in polling of the GOP race, is 44. Haley, a longer-shot contender, has centered her campaign around a call for a new generation of leadership.
