Age limits don't make much sense. People who want them usually choose based on average mental capabilities for that age. But we don't vote for "the average American" (no matter how much they campaign on that image). We vote for specific candidates based on their speeches, previous work, and ability to manage. If we want to exclude people from running because of fears of dementia, we should demand cognitive tests, not stereotyping rules.
