How would you feel if your favorite public leader had to retire at a certain age, regardless of their abilities?

I would appreciate it because it would encourage voters to consider younger candidates more often

I believe at a certain point; leaders need to stand down. Things are always changing, and a younger generation or fresh mind is needed to create genuine change. Along with that, physically and mental capabilities are declined as you age, and I fear some of the judgement older leaders can end up having.

Yes there comes a certain point where people are lost in touch with the populace.

A maximum age is not only important for competency but for relevancy. Older people tend to be out of touch with issues important to the majority of society.

I think that would be the correct course of action.

70 is too old to be running for office, let those boomers let the next generation handle america.

I believe in term limits for all public officials.

my favorite leader would know when to retire i’ll tell you that much

I would love that. I feel our last few candidates couldn’t fully understand the issues of our day

i think that it only makes sense to encourage younger public figures to provide new insights and viewpoints

Saddened. Someone’s age does not determine if they are no longer capable of doing a job.
