If the stress of the campaign doesn't kill him, the shock of winning the election just might.

The appropriate retort to the “he’s too old slur” is that here in Malaysia last year they elected a 92 year-old to oust the corrupt government. Ordinary people rose up after decades of neo-aristocracy.
Bernie is the US’s last chance to save the republic.
If the US could learn from the UK they would have Bernie, Tulsi and Lizzie campaigning together, playing to their strengths (anti-war, consumer and worker protection, finance reform) to show a clear divide between themselves and the pro-aristocracy candidates like Kamala (is a cop) Harris.

It was hardly a 'slur'...it was an observation. I think very highly of Mr. Sanders and wish him well. But being nearly 80 years of age in a stressful job is a legitimate concern.
