3. Don't trust anyone over 30

I haven't trusted myself in over 20 years.

5. Age is only an impediment if it is associated with infirmity

or noticeable mental deterioration. If the older/younger person has the wisdom, the judgment and the love of country to serve -- why not? I must add that, while not that old, FDR was not in good health and died as a result of this poor health while in office. Yet FDR was one of our best presidents. A younger man can be in worse health than an older man.

11. I agree wholeheartedly

and some forms of dementia can begin while one is still in their 30's

6. Isn't there something in America called age discrimination?

I think the Constitution clearly lays out the age difference on who can and cannot run.

7. Don't you have to be at least 35 to hold the office?

10. It does, but that still doesn't mean that you're to be trusted

Don't trust anyone over 30. It makes it a lot harder to be surprised when politician aren't completely forthright.

8. I am 59 and I still say "Don't trust anyone over 30"

9. I'm 75 so I am not being predjuiced by saying 70 is pushing it.

Some one that age is too damn old.
