InquilineKea 75 Posted April 23, 2021 Well I guess it's the end of the "every democratic presidential candidate since 1976 [or in the last 44 years] is still alive" pattern of the cycle also damnit, he seemed healthy for his age and it was a sudden drop. kind of like george mcgovern Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

'Started life as a lawyer' according to the homepage. Interesting ... most people start life as a baby. Only in America, eh? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

arghton 6,782 Posted July 10, 2021 The picks are good but I'm suprised by how the committee didn't include Carlos Menem and Larry King who both seemed to be on their way out of this world when the year changed. Kenneth Kaunda and Dilip Kumar would've been good picks too, but at the start of this year I'd have thought they'd again survive another year. I'm suprised how none of the three Bobs on the list have died yet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
