You could take every example you gave about why people over 65 shouldn’t be allowed to be president and make it the reason they should be. They’ve been around long enough to see these shifts, to recognize the difficulty in bringing about change but have also seen that change can happen under the right circumstances. There are plenty of people over 65 that have as strong or stronger of a grasp on cutting edge technology as a 35 or 40 year old.

I’m for capable and pragmatic people. I don’t much care what age they are.
