Seriously, Sanders is turning 77 in just over a week and would be 79 in November 2020 to begin what hopefully would be 8 years in a killer job. Most people dramatically decline physically, and often mentally, in their 80s. Not going to happen.

Joe Biden is only a year behind. Not going to happen. Conceivably could be a warm-fuzzies Uncle Joe VP, honorably retiring in 2024 if needed.
