Let me suggest some more:
- Taking 200k to speak for a republican in 2018 (yes 2018 elections)
- Calling republicans his “friends”
- Giving us the gift of Clarance Thomas
List goes on for this guy.
Most important question: Can he beat Donald Trump?
“Strike four! You’re really out!”
We would all love to beat Donald Trump with a large bat that has spikes in the end
What he needs to do is get more votes and accumulate more delegates than anybody else.
The elite media proclaiming what he “needs” to do in their eyes is irrelevant.
He needs to squash Sanders like a bug, then step back and let the younger Democrats proceed with the eradication of Trumpublicanism
Answers: No
Quoting for future reference.
By all means. But if things should happen to go that way, you have to eat a cilantro salad.
Deal! 
Yes, he needs votes and delegates. The question people are pursuing now is: how does he achieve this?
I’ve already promised to dine on cilantro tacos if Sanders is nominated and defeats Trump. 
Any list of questions that omits the question “You will be 78 when you take the oath of office, 82 when you finish your first term, and 86 at the end of your second term. Why should anyone under 60 believe that you can maintain your intellectual capabilities at this advanced age?” is leaving out an important issue.
This is an issue for Sanders as well.
If Trump is re-elected, he will be younger than Sanders is now, and younger than Biden would be if elected when he leaves office. And many are saying that Trump is showing signs of aging.
Aging is a fact. Cognitive decline is a fact. Every person will experience it, and the Dunning-Kruger response of “I’m different” is not reassuring. I am 67, and am a smart guy, but I am already feeling like it takes more to figure stuff out. My dad had small strokes starting at about 73 or so, which reduced his ability to function. He had an age-related vitamin deficiency (pernicious anemia) which led to him acting oddly (it has cognitive effects and, most characteristically, manifests with a discolored and swollen tongue).
Mmmmmmmmmm
Waiting for policies, I allready know his name.

We have eighteen other candidates. I think we can do better.
Yeah, I mean it isn’t news that Biden is a flawed Democrat. He is also orders of magnitude less flawed than trump, and a certain class of voters doesn’t care about that. On pure electability, he seems plausible as the nominee.
With the crowded field, the risk of getting a left field candidate like trump himself goes up.
A careful study of Trump’s tactics in 2015-2016 suggests that this is not an idle concern. Trump was quite clever and strategic. He would select a target for each debate and primary, and systematically work to eliminate that person. Marco Rubio (tiny hands), etc. He would cut them out of the herd and take them out. It was actually pretty clever. But very cynical and very manipulative. Not sure who in the Dem field has those skills. Gillibrand is an assassin, but she is also a dead duck. Harris?
It’s a big field, but I don’t think the dynamics of the Democratic primary are comparable to what happened in the last Republican primary. The R voters were still angry about Obama, angry at government in general, and wanted someone to go to DC and break all the china in the shop. That’s what they got with Trump.
For all the policy differences in the Dem field, what we’re really looking for is someone who can easily beat Trump. I don’t think that will be an oddball, left field candidate. I don’t think it will be a has-been like Biden or Bernie either, by the time the primaries are over. We have other good candidates in this field who are already getting plenty of attention.
