Hot Topic: Out to Pasture or On to the Presidency?
Manage episode 378289866 series 3293069
More and more, society seems to be alarmed by the age of our politicians. Mitch McConnell's freezing episodes. Donald Trump having to take an IQ test to prove mental capacity. Joe Biden being perceived more as a sleepy/drunk uncle than a commanding leader. You see it and you see everyone talking about it. IEnter the Hot Topic. We had to ask the questions: Should there be an age limit (maximum age) to run for office (particularly for a Presidential or Congressional seat)? Is age the problem or is it an issue of capacity? More importantly, is there a foolproof way to legislate either?
