    Even if she would serve two terms in a row, she would still only be 67 by the time shes finished, so thats still way younger than what Trump or Biden have been during their terms.

      Right.

      But apparently Biden always intended to run twice, making her 71 at the end of her second term…

      But 67 is still too old for lots of people. And above everything thing else the presidency is a popularity contest.

      Younger candidates like Obama and Bill get more votes, which carries down ballot races, and let’s us get the House and Senate so the president can get shit done.

          . In your example Biden would have served as president while 85. 71 is a problem in this logic how?

          Simple, my standards don’t get lowered everytime someone doesn’t meet them.

          We could have an 150 year old president and I’d still say 71 is a problem. Even if I voted for the 150 year old.
