Because the adage says, “Age is only a quantity.” Ben Franklin was 81 when he contributed considerably to drafting the American Structure in Philadelphia in 1787. Benedict Arnold was 38 when he turned traitor in opposition to his nascent American nation within the Revolutionary Struggle. Who was the higher chief?
We don’t “rent” a president to run the 100-yard sprint. We elect management based on knowledge, expertise and belief. Franklin Roosevelt was restricted in his mobility from polio and no matter one thinks of his insurance policies, he was unquestionably a succesful chief in wartime. Abraham Lincoln additionally suffered from sickness and bouts of melancholy, but he stored the nation collectively in a horrible battle.
Age is really a quantity, and an irrelevant one at that besides in sports activities. Elect our leaders for knowledge, expertise and belief in a thoughts that may accomplish that properly and successfully.
