Don't have a problem with old people in general, but I do have a problem with no maximun retirement age for Supreme Court Judges. I saw an AP poll stating 6 out 10 Americans agree, so I'm not alone with this opinion. The Constitution does set a minimum age in order to be president. It says no one shall be sworn in as president who has not reached the age of 35. Back in our Founders Day, life expectancy was what, around 50. The average age of the Supreme Court justices is 69 years old. [/QUOTE]
