How old is too old to be leading a group called "Young Democrats"?

[TexasTowelie]

For the second time in recent weeks I have read about people in their 30s being elected as president of a "Young Democrats" group. I realize that age is a relative thing, but some college students might think that someone over 30 should be considered middle-aged. Is it a vanity thing for people with gray hair or receding hairlines, or is it similar to The Young Turks being headed by Cenk Uyger who is 47? Would these leaders be better served by holding a keg party instead?

1. Death

I welcome anybody to call themselves young. It's the heart that matters really.

Besides "young" is a relative term that changes over time.

2. Membership is allowed until age 36.

4. Leadership should max out at about that age, also

after that, they start looking undignified and a little silly.

3. Presumably, people elected said individuals...

...that would include those under the age of 30. In all honesty, considering that our parties leadership is well into their 70's, I do believe 30 is rather young by comparison.

5. The republican "Young Guns" are 50.

6. Don't trust anyone over 30
