- jlgreco 14y agoMaybe my perception is skewed, but I imagine most American politicians' children being in their 20's to 30's. Edit: Apparently wikipedia really does have a page for everything: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_current_United_States_Senators_by_age http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_current_United_States_S...
- jack-r-abbit 14y agoOur President's kids are 11 & 14. Sure that is just one case but I also imagine current generation of politicians is on the edge of a more recent trend to have kids later in life (not counting the other trend of having kids at age 14).
- jlgreco 14y agoObama is only older than 15 or so of the 100 senators. As far as American politics go, he is quite young.
- tedunangst 14y agoWhile I suppose Congressmen may make their voting decisions based on what games their kids like to play, I'd hope they'd consider other factors.
- fruchtose 14y agoI would like that as well, but sadly a lot of U.S. politics seems to be based on personal factors these days...
