Sure, there are. The problem is we need new blood. New ideas. When it's the same people for forty years, it's the same policies and ideas. There is no change and little progression. Times are changing. We need representatives that reflect that. There are people who have been in office since before I was born. People are staying in office for fifty years till they die in their eighties or nineties. It's like...retire and enjoy yourself a bit while you can. Let someone else come in. They have some pretty amazing retirement packages after leaving office. Lifetime pension and healthcare. Why don't they use them. I guess they are just addicted to the power. Not a good thing.
Yeah, two examples of people who should have long since retired. The dude from Alaska was in office even longer or just as long and died in his eighties, still I'm office.
What gave you that idea? I said I wanted to vote for whoever I wanted provided they were otherwise qualified.
You are pretty much guaranteed to be mature by then if you can be. It's interesting cause 35 was like 50 back then.
I don't know but my gut tells me that's a good qualifying factor. I know the brain and psyche aren't fully developed until someone is 25. Also, I suppose a person needs some mature experience to do a good job as President.
Just throwing this out there, but Al Capone was a fairly effective leader at 20 until he was arrested at 27...
If you can’t denounce a Nazi then yes I will consider you a Nazi. If you can’t denounce the KKK you might as well be KKK. And so on. If you don’t stand up to it, you are one of them. It’s simple really.
One wouldn't think so. ABM seems fine with him not denouncing Nazis. I'd be pretty pissed if a candidate I loved wouldn't denounce hate groups, but some have principles, others just want to take away some people's rights.
