No question that this is just the warm ups prior to the 2020 presidential election so take a look at the leading contenders and equally important their ages come 2020. Holder 69, Romney 73, Sanders 79, Trump 74. Biden 78. Will somebody please get these ancient artifacts off the stage, their time has come and gone and then go get somebody who is younger a political centrist and a 21st century visionary?

I remember thinking how old Reagan was.

Glad you brought that up.Funny though that you failed to mention the fact that Cochran, Shelby, Crassley and Inhofe are all in their 80"s .....But that's ok with you because they're all Republicans. In fact because they' re Republican I'm sure it will be just fine if they all turn into the likes of Jesse Helms, so afflicted with cognitive dementia that they too have to be wheeled into the Senate chamber and have someone press the "no" button for them as the case was with Helms. One of the reasons he as known as "Senator No".

I don't know everybody's name, but if you are a member of congress over the age of 68....you need to go!!!

I would be more generous. If you are elected while still in your 60's you can finish out your term but nobody should run for election after 70. Especially Senators with 6 year terms.

Looks like we've got some bipartisan support, here.

Would y'all reach out across the aisle and say (without any political snark) that no politician should run for office after some set age? (Say 65 to 70).

Seems like something we can all support, regardless of party or affiliation.

I chose '68' because the person should know something about retirement issues (65+).

You are probably thinking you and I are pretty sharp at 70...…..Everybody around me, my age, is whacko!!!!

The problem is someone can still be sharp when elected but when they get that old could suddenly decline at anytime. There are several politicians who hardly know where they are day to day but we are supposed to trust to make rational decisions.
