Well, he’s a democrat, after all.

They’re ALL 14 years old mentally anyway, so what’s the difference???

With the addition of the 14 year old, the roster of Dem. candidates is starting to look like the Cabinet in Idiocracy.

“I think Vermonters should take me seriously because I have practical progressive ideas, and I happen to be 14, not the other way around,”

It’s Vermont, the Stalinist all white state. Love to see what stupid ideas he would unleash on the morons that would vote for him.

This changes everything! I thought the aging tranny had a lock on the Dem nomination.

Has anyone ever met a teenager who didn’t think they were oh-so mature and smart for their age?

Amusing.

This will make a great story for him to tell when he is older - if he is not too embarrassed to tell it.

Bet on the election laws being revised pretty soon to prevent a repetition.

GOP Governor Scott is favored to be reelected.

Only GOP chance to win a Vermont Senate seat?

This 14 year old needs to write a book, while he still knows everything.

Of the four democrats, the kid is probably the least insane.

Reading about the other 3 candidates, you appear to be correct.

“I think Vermonters should take me seriously because I have practical progressive ideas, and I happen to be 14, not the other way around,” Sonneborn said in a recent televised gubernatorial forum. “I think that my message and my platform transcend age.”

****

Very true. Especially when considering that to be a progressive, the mental functions must be retarded and undeveloped beyond early middle school levels of growth and capability.

An idiot child to lead the childishly idiotic.
