This would be the age of the following candidates if
they won the election: Bernie Sanders ..79, Joe Biden
...78, Donald Trump...74, Elizabeth Warren....71.

The two previous oldest candidates were Eisenhower
at 62 and Reagan at 69 when they entered the White
House.

Hopefully, our next President in 2020 will be a person
who is in their 50's and has served as a Governor. This
person should have executive experience in government
and have leadership qualities which would attract solid
and intelligent folks to a Presidential cabinet.

Like it or not odds are that in 2021 we will be inaugurating someone who's over 70.

Harris is polling the highest of the under 70 crowd and she's in 4th in the Dem primary.

Biden is looking likely RCP shows his lead expanding.

The lack of dynamic leaders who are running for the
Presidency should be a concern. America needs a
vibrant and intelligent President who can be a positive
force for good in our world. There must be someone
else besides Biden, Sanders or Trump
 
Smart, articulate leaders with economic or business savvy have no interest in being POTUS. Why would you when you can make $100 mil being a CEO.

To offer yourself as a candidate for President does
involve some sacrifice. It might mean loss of a huge
income, the loss of privacy, and the loss of peace and
sanity

However, our American history has demonstrated that
some were willing to make this sacrifice for the good of
our nation. Men like George Washington, Thomas
Jefferson, and Dwight Eisenhower never sought the
Presidency, the Presidency sought them.
 
Holy smokes... Warren is smoking hot for almost 71

Dwight Eisenhower was 62 years old when he was
elected President. He did have some heart problems
during his two terms in office. Yet, he was still an
effective President who gave us peace and prosperity.
 
America is in trouble if Elizabeth Warren becomes
a sex symbol.

I don’t want to live in that America. Having said that I hope Mrs unIowa is in that good of shape at 70, I imagine she will be.
