The proper age for the president of the United States


It is because the Congress is perceived as so utterly dysfunctional and the Supreme Court as so utterly political that the public is so nervous about and obsessed with the profile and " fitness " of the future president.

I am surprised that the " don't trust anybody over 30 " Baby Boom generation is not more vocal about Hillary's age . Reagan was pushing 70 in 1980 and Hillary is near 70 in 2016.

In 1992 I was attracted by Bill Clinton's vigorous" liberalism " and his relative youth.
" Nothing gold can stay "  ( Robert Frost ).

I think individuals should stop driving cars after age 60 and stop running for president at that age.

" Nothing gold can stay "
