Should We Put Age Limits on Politicians?
<p>Should there be a cap on how old our public officials can be? According to a Pew Research Center <a href="https://www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/2023/10/04/most-americans-favor-maximum-age-limits-for-federal-elected-officials-supreme-court-justices/" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">survey</a>, the answer for most Americans is yes.</p>
<p>As of this writing, the President of the United States is 81 years old. He is running for reelection. Should President Biden be successful, he will be 82 on Inauguration Day 2025 and (assuming he makes it) 86 when he hands the reins to his successor on Inauguration Day 2029.</p>
<p>Joe Biden’s leading opponent is former President Donald Trump, who appears likely to recapture the Republican Party nomination. Should Trump win in November 2024 and return to the White House, he will be 78 on Inauguration Day 2025.</p>
